Beyond LGBTQIA+ Pride

What happens when your faith and your identity collide?In this deeply personal episode, Mandi reflects on her journey as a queer Christian, the pain of losing her faith family after coming out, and why she chose to deepen rather than abandon her relationship with God.Mandi explores the expansiveness of God's love, the importance of cultural and historical context when interpreting Scripture, and the ways Christians have applied that context to many biblical teachings while often refusing to do so when discussing sexuality.She also begins breaking down the passages most often used to condemn LGBTQIA+ people, including Genesis 19, Leviticus 18 & 20, Romans 1, 1 Corinthians 6, and 1 Timothy 1.This isn't an episode about changing hearts or winning an argument. It's an invitation to listen, question, and consider another perspective.There is room for faith, questions, queerness, and your whole self.LinksBuoy Hydration DropsMandi MailMusic Credit"Basic Implosion" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
