You Are Seen, Known & Loved: Psalm 139 Speaks to LGBTQ & All People

I have a counseling client whom I’ll call “Israel” because she’s always struggling against injustice and afraid that God’s love isn’t meant for her. Her pain inspires me to remind readers that while the  “clobber passages’ of the Bible have been mis-used to shame LGBTQ people, the bottom line message of the scriptures is that […]
