Love Across the Spectrum: LGBT Christians Speak Out

Join us Nov. 7, 2015, for this very special event featuring Sara Miles. (Registration is required.)

 

 

 

What does it mean to love God? To love our neighbor? To love ourselves? What if you're a gay Christian? What if your neighbor is a lesbian? In a world where hatred, fear, and conflict swirl around issues of sexual orientation and gender identity, how can lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender followers of Jesus claim the love that changed their lives?

Love Across the Spectrum is a conference designed to give voice to the lives and stories of LGBT persons and their allies from various Christian traditions engaged in journey we all call faith. Come and hear the powerful witness of the Holy Spirit in action. Come and see the incredible work of these faithful witnesses within the Kingdom of God.
