This episode of Have Hope; Will Travel is especially tender. Because Karen Fig isn’t just a member of the LGBTQ+ community. She’s a close friend.
Like Karen has checked my head for lice.
One time we shared a bed and only one of us got bedbugs.
She’s involved in some of the stories I shared in the book Jesus Shoes.
You might even recognize her from my Facebook profile picture.
In episode {26} she shares her story about what it was like to realize she’s queer and then come out.
- How did her church respond?
- How did her friends and community respond?
- What did they do/say that was helpful? What did they do/say that was hurtful?
- How can we love our LGBTQ+ friends well?
She shares her story of her own faith deconstruction and where she’s found her place in the greater Church community.
I know I learned some things listening to Karen, and I’m sure you will too.
