Center for Faith, Sexuality & Gender

What it is

Your directory currently offers two positions on this territory: Focus on the Family's ten-point explainer, and Restored Hope Network, whose framing around leaving a gay or transgender identity is contested enough that it needs labelling. The Center sits in neither camp. It holds the historic Christian sexual ethic and trains leaders to engage the questions with what it calls theological faithfulness and courageous love — which in practice means pastoral papers, free webinars, and courses aimed at parents of LGBTQ+ children and church leaders who want to respond well rather than argue well. That posture is what makes it useful in a recovery directory: the people most likely to need it are a father whose son told him something last week, and a pastor who does not want to lose a family. Free webinars and pastoral papers; courses and conferences paid.
