(For context first read Hillsong’s ‘Do I love gay people?’) I love and care about all people. No matter what their beliefs, ethics, or lifestyles. It concerns me that so many in the Christian Church can be quick to judge others that are different from themselves, that don’t fit into the categories I’d like them to. […]

So yet again, like so many other times social media is up in arms over a comment from a seemingly homophobic Christian. The difference being, for me, this time it’s a vicar in Hull. It’s a vicar I know of, that knows of me, and has accused me of ‘affirming genital expression’ by setting up […]

I found myself in a bit of a reflective mood this weekend, both on what has been and also on what is to come – if you can ‘reflect’ on the future! It was a year ago that I laid in bed, on a Saturday morning, scrolling through Twitter and Facebook expecting to send a […]

Sometimes it really gets me. You know when you read or hear something and it gives you that ‘kick in the stomach feeling’ and all of a sudden you just want to cry and ask why? Well that happened yesterday. So the back story, a few of us, some regular congregation members, some not, have […]

So then, a little background, I’m Dana and I’m an LGBT traditionalist Catholic. I started this curious addiction when I converted to Catholicism roughly a decade ago from a middle of the road, vaguely evangelical Anglican background, only complicated by the fact my dad is an Anglican priest.

We need to go upstream and find out why they’re falling in”. Desmond Tutu. Ruth Hunt (Chief Executive of […]

So I haven’t ‘blogged’ for ages, and I hoping this may be a little different to others. Mainly because I don’t want to convey my opinion too much, but more bring to your attention the opinions of others. If you know me, have me as a ‘friend’ on Facebook or follow me, you may have […]

I think many of us as LGBT Christians at some point have been asked ‘that’ question. Why, if you’re working for acceptance in the Christian community do you run exclusive events or meetings?  Here, one of our members Fi, gives us her perspective on that question.  We’ve been asked quite a few times recently about […]

Lent has been an interesting one for me this year. I usually like to give something up that’s a real challenge and this year I decided to go veggie for lent. So no meat, fish, chicken, or anything with traces of meat in, which unfortunately for me rules out lots of lovely chewy sweets! It’s […]

I sit here, in my room, knowing I am sat on the edge of history. Equal marriage eve. Tomorrow same sex couples can finally get married. At last, this is what we’ve waited for, for so long. I remember being sat here on 5th Feb last year watching BBC parliament (one of the few times, […]
