We’re Straight & Queer. Why It Matters.
When our child first claimed the word Queer 15 years ago, it sent shockwaves through our worldview. Rob and I had to grapple with our existing faith alongside unfamiliar words and understanding. Especially Queer. Why did my child so fervently claim it? Was it now a power word? Through fervent inquiry and our son’s kind […]

“People look at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. If we insist on correcting the outward appearance, we will destroy our child’s heart. Your child’s faith is a precious thing. Don’t let it be destroyed.”

“Understand, the word sin in the original context is very different from the one we hear with modern ears, loaded as it is with religious moral overtones added over the centuries. Sin is an archery term that simply means to miss the mark. That’s all. It contains no shame or condemnation. Sins here includes hurts and near misses and wide misses and do-overs. It means that you will miss the mark in any and all of these ways, and love covers it all! Our love for each other is meant to cover it all! What a liberating read of this passage.”

“Faith is a precious relationship with God, planted by deeply personal interactions directly with God, fed and watered by hope and joy. Faith is our birthright as human beings created in God’s image. Our beliefs are a different matter. Our beliefs, our rigidly held interpretations, become our prejudice, our harshness, our judgment. Every generation has had to face and dismantle false beliefs about the universe (that the earth is flat), about people (that women are “deformed males”), and about God (that God is all about rules, which Jesus handily dismantles).”

“Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change.”

“The starting-point of critical elaboration is the consciousness of what one really is, and is 'knowing thyself' as a product of the historical processes to date, which has deposited in you an infinity of traces, without leaving an inventory.”
