Posture Shift

Excluding LGBT+ youth from contexts like youth groups stifles their spiritual growth. Instead, create environments that nurture faith and connection. Everyone belongs.

Words matter.

For many LGBT+ people, the phrase "gay lifestyle" can feel dismissive because...

👉 It suggests that being gay or transgender is a deliberate choice.
👉 It presumes details about a person's life that we simply don't know.
👉 It shifts dialogue from relational connection to behavioral overtones.

And there's more we will unpack next week.

✔️Join us! Share as a comment below your thoughts on why LGBT+ people are offended by the word lifestyle.
