Center for Faith, Sexuality and Gender

A hub for theologically sound teaching and practical guidance on questions related to sexuality and gender. The center seeks to address two primary needs in the church. One, to help leaders cultivate a more robust biblical ethic of marriage, sexuality and gender. Two, to help churches and organizations create a safe and compassionate environment for LGBTQ+ people, their families, and anyone wrestling with their sexuality or gender identity. To meet these two needs, we seek to educate not only pastors and leaders, but to help these leaders educate the people they lead by providing small group material, educational videos, podcasts, blogs, youth curriculum, and other resources.
