Happy Pride Month

from Faith in the Cracks · host Karen Wright

June is Pride Month. And it has already started, a conservative seminary classmate had a social media post that was decidedly anti-LGBTQIA+. There are many churches and pastors who believe homosexuality is a sin and use "clobber passages" as the scriptural basis. However, not every pastor or church agrees.Many of the passages used to claim homosexuality is wrong have been misinterpreted. In other ways we have done disservice to the text if we think that the same societal structure exists as it did at the time of the Bible being redacted or written. Society has evolved and changed. Our understanding of the world around us has changed. So to not allow our biblical interpretations to change means we limit God. We state that God is no longer speaking and the Spirit is no longer moving. Know that not all churches are the same. There are pastors and churches who are inclusive and welcoming. Happy Pride Month!
