Too often, “Christian” churches have been directly responsible for nurturing an environment of hatred and homophobia that enables, emboldens and excuses violence, discrimination and legislation against our LGBTQ community members. Christian churches must speak out loudly, boldly and frequently against such attitudes and actions, recognizing that all people are beloved children of God.

If we cannot see the face of God in each other, we will never see the face of God.
