There are ongoing conversations at a national level within @baptistuniongb regarding the ministerial rules of accreditation. As we discern a way forward as a tradition, many Baptists are sharing why they believe it's Godly to affirm LGBT+ people.

Absolutely delighted to take on this role as a Co-Director of Affirm. LGBTQ+ Inclusion in church can feel like an uphill battle but it’s an important one to have. I am excited to play my part in making the church safer for this, and the next, generation of LGBTQ+ Christians.

Affirm 🌈@TweetAffirm
