How do you justify Romans? LGBT Clobber Passage

What this episode covers

I don’t understand how to move past this passage. When I read it, it seems pretty clear to me that being gay is seen as unnatural and wrong. I have read so many articles on the 7 clobber passages but I am never satisfied with the “justification” to being gay of Romans. Do you have any resources or advice on how I can understand this better? Here’s what Brian had to say in response: Read the transcript (PDF) Show Notes What does the Bible say about being LGBTQ?
