Historically the modern evangelical church has been pretty prescriptive about what you must believe. And if you are uncertain in those beliefs, your faith is called into question. What if you could hold spirituality and uncertainty in tension? I believe that you can. And when you do, you understand what it means to be deeply spiritual but rather uncertain.

This week we unpack 3 Old Testament passages that have been used in the argument against LGBTQAI+ inclusion. The story of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19, Leviticus 18:22, and Leviticus 20:13. The truth is that these verses have nothing to do with what we understand as LGBTQIA+.

Finish this sentence. God created Adam and Eve not... Yes, we've all heard the creation argument used against our LGBTQ friends. But the truth is that it does not hold up at all in the question of gay marriage or gay relationships. Join me as I unpack the creation story and how it has been wrongly used as a filter for everything Christians have believed about same-sex relationships.

The Christian Church is facing a very serious crossroads around LGBTQIA+ inclusion. Already major denominations are splitting over the issue. When we say everybody is welcome, what do we really mean? Is it everybody? Or just those that meet our requirements? This is the first in an ongoing series around this issue and shares my road to the full inclusion and affirmation of the LGBTQIA+ community.

It seems that the way we view and understand the Bible can become a massive stumbling block as we deconstruct our faith. Today we look at how we view Scripture through the different stages of our deconstruction.

In this episode, we explore the liminal space of deconstruction - the stage in your spiritual journey when you question and doubt - the stage that makes you wonder if everything you ever believed was just fantasy - the point at which you can't really tell if you're a Christian or an Agnostic. My hope is to bring some insight on how to navigate those spaces in our lives.

I had the chance to sit down with Tom Basson on Zoom recently. Tom is the Co-Senior Pastor at Grace Family Church in South Africa. This was actually for their podcast and goes with a sermon series they are doing called "Asking for a Friend". But I thought it would be worth posting here as well. In this episode, we talk about the damage the church has inflicted on so many people throughout history and sadly still continues to do so.

All of my life I've been taught about holiness and purity. Be Holy as God is Holy. But what if compassion trumps holiness and purity? In fact what if the politics of holiness is actually doing damage? That's what we are talking about in this week's episode.
I would love to hear your thoughts after you listen. Here's how to get in touch with me...
