Our monthly bonus episode is out now. Ashley sits down with @travelingnun and @gregory_coles about their experiences being homeschooled. It is a fun lighthearted episode. You can listen now by becoming a patron at patreon.com/lifeonsideb Note: No homeschoolers were harmed in the making of this episode. The title is a joke and not implying any cause of sexuality.
The loudest voices proclaiming death under the guise of “pastoral care” are loud because they know their position is flawed and they can see their days are numbered.
Our self-advocacy doesn't end with getting Christians to let us exist, nor does it end with getting pastors to be more pastoral.
this is a pretty long read, but Bridgette did a great job of also giving TL;DR summaries at the end of each point
Twisting the biblical understanding of effeminacy to shame men who don’t fit a perverted scale of masculinity is spiritual malpractice to the core.

Religious faith reduces suicidality for virtually every American demographic except one: LGBTQ people. It’s past time the church confronted this legacy.
“To that end, Heavy Burdens (Brazos Press, expected 2021) provides an honest account of the ways in which LGBTQ people experience discrimination in the church, helping Christians face the tragic reality of this legacy and empowering churches to navigate a better path forward. Debate over competing approaches to LGBTQ issues is at an all-time high, and it will only increase in the coming years. It’s past time that LGBTQ Christians and their allies had a resource to inform and educate fellow believers on the real-world impact of this debate.”
What if a gay person can reflect the glory of God in unique and beautiful ways not “in spite of” being gay but actually because they are gay?
“This is my introductory post for a month-long series on “celibate gay pride,” exploring the glory of God as revealed in the life of celibate gay Christians. I’d like to publish about 2 posts every week over the month of June. But I need your help! The more feedback I get, the more I can make things relevant. As the series progresses, please comment below or share your thoughts via private message. Any interaction will be a HUGE help as I tailor the content. Suggestions and requests are 100 percent welcome!
Also, I’m specifically talking about and for celibate gay Christians in this series. To be clear: this is not an argument for why gay Christians ought to be celibate. I want to clarify this at the outset, because I often receive various criticisms from non-celibate gay people who tell me that my arguments aren’t convincing. But there’s a reason for that. This blog is for LGBT+ Christians who already believe in the traditional sexual ethic. It’s not a blog for convincing LGBT+ Christians to accept a sexual ethic they don’t believe in. But if you’re interested in learning about celibate gay believers (and/or the larger LGBT+ community that believes in the traditional sexual ethic), then by all means read on!”

What is your beverage of choice? Cliche schmichme, the truth of the matter is: red wine. Tell us a little bit about your work in REALITY BEACH. 606 Ellis St Apt D is a real place that my Gramma Eileen used to live in, in Little Saigon, San Francisco. I only visited once.
