Our Core Values

 

 What we do

  • We share our personal stories giving hope to others who are unsatisfied by LGBTQ identity.

  • With insight on the LGBTQ experience, we provide confidential and compassionate messaging input to legislators speaking about or voting on LGBTQ-related legislation.

  • We provide witness testimonies at hearings for/against legislation and make presentations in international forums focused on human rights and freedoms of conscience for people like us. 

  • We support freedoms of conscience, speech, and religion for all people.

  • We educate and equip churches to address LGBTQ with compassion, grace, and truth.

  • We create safe spaces and offer support to those leaving LGBTQ behind.

  • We create resources drawing on our unique perspective at the intersection of LGBTQ and Christian faith.

 Our Core Values

  • We seek to walk in graciousness and respect—even to those with whom we disagree.

  • We build relationships, not tear them down.

  • We honor others in our language and tone.

  • We refuse bitterness, and choose forgiveness, especially toward our opposition.

  • We cast vision for what is good rather than highlight failures.

  • We choose unity. We protect relationships and do not separate due to offense.

  • We offer our friends, family members, and others within the LGBTQ community the same generosity we received from God—which is full of unconditional grace and compassion. This enables us to rise above religious platitudes to prioritize human dignity and worth.
