Reaching All People
Nearly 60% of LBGTQ adults 18-40 have attended a 4 year college.
Gen Z 82.5 million ppl (born 1997-2012) represents about 20% of US population
More than 1 in 4 Gen-Z adults (18-27) identifies as LGBTQ+ (28% - 23.1 million ppl)
VISION
Today, God has expanded that vision to also include our precious same-sex attracted (“sexual minorities” or LGBTQ+/SSA) neighbors. As someone who also has a persisting same-sex attraction and who holds a historical Christian sexual ethic, I personally know how challenging pursuing faith and church life is, in light of our different sexual oriented experience.
I want to see ALL PEOPLE encounter Jesus, thriving in the church family, sharing Jesus and His teachings with their lives, including sexual minority friends and family while observing a historic Christian sexual ethic of celibacy or marriage between one man and one woman.
I have compassion and want to be part of helping create spaces where anyone can safely explore and grow in their relationship with Jesus. I dream of creating accessible and relatable resources to help others do the same.
