The Christian Response to LGBTQ: Turning My Story into God's Glory

Overview and Index

One of the hot-button topics in our churches and in our society lately has been the LGBTQ movement. Over the last few decades, society has become more and more accepting of people who identify as one of the LGBTQ identities. In fact, many people have completely flipped their opinions and ideals—going from discriminating against those who identify as LGBTQ to discriminating against anyone who speaks against them.

Christians and the church often have one of two responses—either complete acceptance, going so far as to say that LGBTQ sexual and gender identity choices are good and acceptable, or hatred and judgment, saying that they are sinful and God will find great joy in judging them severely. From my understanding of the Bible, both of these responses are wrong.

So how should we as Christians respond to those in the LGBTQ movement? And if you are in the LGBTQ movement, what does the Bible have to say to you? Over the past several months, God has laid on my heart to address this topic from a Biblical perspective. With his help and a lot of prayer, I’ve created a course with 6 modules to guide us as we develop our response to the LGBTQ mindset and identity. I will be releasing 1 module each month for the next 6 months, starting with Module 1 today.

To view course content, click on the 6 modules below:

• Module 1: My Story

• Module 2: Biblical Foundations of Gender and Sexuality

• Module 3: Christian Response to LGBTQ

• Module 4: Transforming Thinking about LGBTQ

• Module 5: What It Means to Follow Jesus

• Module 6: Leaving LGBTQ Behind

I hope you join me in learning more about the Christian response to this very sensitive topic.
