Each person, each voice, every time one of us tells our faith story, every time one of us takes a stand, it makes a difference. They know the score. But winning does not mean all is perfect or the fight is over. Racism still exists, but the African-American civil rights movement changed the world forever.
Sexism still exists, but feminism changed the world forever.
Homophobia still exists, but we have changed the world forever. As LGBT people and our heterosexual allies, all of us are needed as together we do this work of education, advocacy, pastoral care, evangelism, and justice. My recent travels included visits to Cincinnati, Atlanta, Washington DC, and Louisville. They held a fabulous fund-raising benefit for MLP outreach and we started a new Greater Cincinnati MLP Chapter. I participated in the national Covenant Network Conference and met with Victor Floyd and the Atlanta MLP Chapter leadership team.
