Join us for a seminar that will equip you to take practical steps towards loving the LGBTQ+ people in your community with a new boldness, while avoiding common pitfalls that erode relationships, harm faith communities, and damage those who identify as LGBTQ+.

Many pastors, young adult ministers, elders, and volunteer leaders question how to provide effective pastoral care to the LGBTQ+ people in their community. They often feel conflicted by personal beliefs, expectations from beloved congregation members, and guidance from denominational leadership and fellow clergy. How do we navigate disagreement regarding theological perspectives on sexuality and gender identity within our church communities? Is it possible to maintain a traditional Biblical view on sexuality, yet remain devoted to those who identify as LGBTQ+? Can Christians with an affirming view continue to serve and thrive alongside brothers and sisters who hold a more conservative view? What are the commonalities in our beliefs? What would Jesus actually do?Ĭhristian leaders are navigating tricky dynamics in the pastoral care of LGBTQ+ youth and adults.
