Steph and Beth both consider themselves allies to the LGBTQIA community. In this episode, Beth shares how her views have changed and how her ally-ship has matured over the years. She used to believe that a Christian with a same gender attraction would need to live a celibate lifestyle, but when she thought critically and carefully about that question, she reached a different conclusion. Every lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, or asexual person bears the image of God. Too often churches seek to make LGBTQIA persons feel like their sexuality is sinful rather than understanding it as part of the diversity of God's creation. Steph and Beth have an honest conversation about how views are changing, and need to continue to change.
