Rachel & Lisa-Jayne's podcast

Available via your podcast provider

Why do people think the Bible says being gay is wrong? What does the Bible actually say about marriage and gender roles and identities? What are some of the different ways we can understand our faith as LGBT Christians who love Jesus, have a deep respect for Scripture, and don't want to lie about who we are?

This is the podcast version of a 6-week intro series Rachel runs via our Facebook group, the Gathering Space.
