Default Hello. My name is...

Marcy. I joined this community in an effort to find encouragement from other GLBT and supportive Christians. The past few years of my life have been quite a journey for me; and although I have been able to do a ton of reconciliation in regards to my sexuality, I still experience huge amounts of anxiety surrounding issues of faith and other followers of Christ. I am hoping to jump start that process through conversation with others in this forum.

Hello Marcie,

Welcome. You've found a wonderful place. You can ask about all kinds of things here and get really thoughtful responses. Hope you'll like it here.

Hi Marcie! Glad you found your way to the Soulforce forums!! This is definitely the place to discuss being gay and spiritual!

As a gay woman and Christian (tho not in the formal sense of the term), I know it's very difficult to get through all the crap that you have been told over the years. Just know that your Lord loves you just the way you were created and is looking out for you.

Hi Marcie,
I'm Christian and a Lesbian. I was very Blessed to grow up in a Denomination that thought I was special, not an abomination. I hope you find what you are seeking. What issues are you feeling anxiety about. If you would like to talk sometime just drop me a line.
Hugs,
Angel
