How do we love the LGBTQ+ community, as Christians? - The Whole Church Podcast

Episode 185

How do we love the LGBTQ+ community, as Christians?

Back again, Christian Ashley and Joshua Noel continue their discussion on God and salvation with Thomas J. Oord. This time they are joined by Dr Oord's daughter, Alexa Oord, to discuss how Christians should love the LGBTQ+ community? Can you love queer people without being affirming? Can correction be loving? What does it mean to be queer? What does it mean to question "womanhood" or "manhood"? Is the Bible really clear about same-sex attraction? What does it mean to be queer? Does God prioritize healthy relationships? Can any relationship be a distraction from kingdom work? Why do some Christians say it's okay to be gay? Why do some Christians think it is a sin to be homosexual? What does LGBTQI mean? What does it mean to be affirming of same-sex marriages or the LGBTQ+ community? We discuss all this and much more in this episode! Join in our conversations on our Discord Server and Facebook group!
