Should All LGBTQIA+ People Be Celibate?

If you’re looking for straight answers, this discussion may leave you with more questions than answers. Meet a Pastor who studied the scriptures on homosexuality with his congregation and then changed to be a “welcoming church;” an Orthodox priest who doesn’t marry same sex couples but was one of the the few priests who buried the dead at the height of the AIDS epidemic in San Francisco; and a Christian, gay, and celibate young woman who has cofounded a faith nonprofit that offers safe spaces for LGBTQIA+ people to cultivate their faith openly.

To add more complexity to the discussion, according to the Marin Foundation: Us Versus Us: The Untold Story of Religion & the LGBT Community, 86% of LGBTQ+ people were raised in the church, and LGBTQ+ people are open to returning to church at an 8x higher rate than the average American.
