What to NOT SAY When Someone "Comes Out" as Gay? đ§
Show Notes:
Itâs becoming more and more common for someone you know to come out as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender or questioning. But what should a Christianâs response be? Whatâs the right language to meet someone with compassion yet hold a standard of truth?
Heavy on truth? Heavy on grace?
While unpacking what this conversation ideally looks like, we discovered some well-meaning Christian responses that may seem like the right thing to say, but ultimately cause more hurt and damage to an individual's healing journey.
Caleb Boggan, Director of Pastoral Care at CHANGED Movement, has gathered these top ten responses as âFailed First Responsesâ to guide Christians in what to avoid saying, and what to say instead.
