GLBT/GLBT-Friendly Religious and
Spiritual Links
The web site of christianlesbians.com lists the group's
purpose as three-fold:
- To proclaim the Good News of Jesus and God's
unconditional and abiding love for all people.
- To offer information and resources for those women
who are presently struggling to reconcile their faith and sexuality
and to let them know that God need not be forsaken simply because
of their sexual orientation. God has definitely not forsaken you!
- To create a circle of fellowship and support for
Christian Lesbians, many of whom feel isolated by living in "the
closet" or from having experienced rejection from family, friends
and their own church community.
Nationwide Index
of Welcoming Congregations
An excellent feature of this web site, also of interest to gay, bisexual,
and transgender persons is its index
of welcoming congregations, which is grouped by state.

People
of Faith Allies is a Minnesota-based interfaith network whose mission
is to give voice and action to our conviction that gay, lesbian, bisexual,
and transgendered people have the same worth and wholeness as all people,
and the right to just and equitable treatment.

What
the Bible Really Says about Homosexuality, by Daniel Helminiak,
Ph.D.
Along with the research of top scholars, this book shows that those
who perceive Bible passages as condemning homosexuality are being misled
by faulty translation and poor interpretation. Daniel Helminiak, Ph.D.,
is a respected theologian and former Roman Catholic priest.
