Hi all,


I recently introduced myself on the Telling Our Stories forum.


I have just created a website that is designed to provide churches and individuals with a list of resources and a bit of a guide to help them deal with the topic of homosexuality in the church.


Here it is.


Any feedback (or promotion, for that matter! – e.g., sharing on Facebook) that you can provide would be appreciated.


Ben

That’s a great resource, Ben.


I have added a link to it on my blog site.

Hi BrisBen


This is so needed. Thanks very much for doing this. 🙂


I had a quick look through and it looks fantastic. Really good, thoughtful advice. I would also highly recommend you include the DVD ‘For The Bible Tells Me So’ as an excellent resource and also the ABC radio interview with 3 pastors from 100 revs. The interview is titled ‘Homosexuality and Religion’ and is located on the 4th page of the discussion section. Alternatively, here’s the link. http://www.abc.net.au/sundaynights/stories/s2845471.htm


The other thing to consider is that bisexual, trans and intersex people have also been slammed or rejected by the church. Could you make reference to them as well as gays and lesbians?


Well done! I’m sure this page will be enormously helpful and healing to many Christians and those in our LGBT community and beyond.


Blessings,


Ann Maree

Thanks Ben for this important resource.


I particularly like the Step format: Listen and reflect; Discuss openly; Build bridges and the associated Relevant actions.


Great work!

Hey – moderators, committee, whomever .. .. ..


Any reason why this website by BrisBen can’t be added to the resource list ??


It’s a beauty !

Hmm.


I’ve just discovered that Google was placing some rather ‘inappropriate’ ads on the site. I couldn’t see them because I am the site admin (you believe that?). It has been fixed now – sorry to the people who got mixed messages!


(Where’s the emoticon for embarrassed…)
