Hope and Pride - A Call To Action

CCnDoc Talk

June is Pride Month! Because there is so much misunderstood about the LGBTQ+ community, we are doing our part to build a bridge of understanding, love and hope by sharing our experiences over the last 21+ years together. People fear what they don’t know or understand. We ask you to seek understanding first. This episode starts off with powerful words from Rachel Held Evans (Christian Minister and former Evangelical) who we've just gotten acquainted with and also are grieving the loss of - she died at the age of 38 in 2019. She was a straight voice for the LGBTQ+ community and she was making such a difference in the minds of Christians and how they view LGBTQ+ individuals. May her words and wishes live on. If you are a straight ally, this podcast will also give you some insight into what it's like to be LGBTQ+ in 2023. Suffice it to say things were going pretty well, and now the tide is turning again - Not everything ends up on the news. Keeping in mind "queer" isn’t one-size-fits-all, and our perspective is just ours, we’re encouraging you to be brave and ask questions of all of your LGBTQ+ friends, relatives and even strangers to really seek to understand what it’s like to be in their shoes. We (all) have more in common than you think! Love IS the answer. What is the question? ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷🤎🖤🩶🤍❤️‍🩹 Thank you! 🏳️‍🌈
