LGBTQ+ Resources
A lot of work has gone into queer theology, especially in the last ten years. We’re still just scratching the surface of all the research that’s been done and made available regarding this conversation. On this resource page, you will find helpful books, Youtube videos, podcast episodes, articles, etc to introduce you to this conversation and educate you along the way.
Click HERE to see Mike’s LGBTQ+ Youtube playlist of his coming out story and subsequent conversations with leaders in queer theology, the Numa Crew, and a non-affirming Christian.
Additionally, Numa has released an informative guide into understanding the subject of homosexuality, the Bible’s defense of gay people, and God’s heart for their inclusion in the family. This series is called Rainbow Road, hosted on Numa+. Just create an account and click on the link to view.
