First, we wholeheartedly believe in the Bible as the inerrant, infallible Word of God and it is by it that we live, breathe and orchestrate our lives. We believe that Jesus Christ is God who came to earth as a man to die for our sins and who rose again. He alone is the only hope for all of mankind. Apart from Jesus we would all be eternally lost and separated from God as our sin deserves, but because of God’s great love, grace and mercy He sent Jesus to pay for our sin penalty, to forgive us all of all of our sins, to bring us into a relationship with Himself and grant us eternal life with Him forevermore! We owe all that we are and all that we do to Jesus Christ! It is His love, His grace and His mercy that compels us to serve Him with our whole lives and to lovingly and humbly address this very sensitive topic of same sex attractions.

Second, we believe that the Bible clearly teaches that God has created us male and female and that His desire is that it would be one man and one woman in a committed marriage relationship for a lifetime and that any sexual relations outside of this context is against His will. Thus, pre-marital sex, extra-marital sex, sex with minors, sex with more than one person, sex with the same sex would all be against His will and thus what the Bible would call sin.

Third, we also believe that the Bible clearly teaches that every one of us comes into this world sinful, broken and separated from God; that all that God had originally designed and intended for us got broken and messed up; that we all have misguided passions and desires; that sin affects us to our very genetic make-up and being and influences all that we think, say, feel and choose. None of us is perfect. We are all sexually broken in some way and all are in need of God to enter into our lives and change us from the inside out. Our hearts, souls, minds, passions, desires, thoughts, behaviors, choices need to be submitted to Jesus Christ so that He can make us who He wants us to be and give us the power, will, strength to live as He originally designed and desired for us to live.

Fourth, because of Jesus Christ and what He has done for us, we believe that there is hope for anyone struggling with same sex attractions to see some kind of change whether it be change of heart, desires, thoughts, actions, passions, choices. Because of Jesus Christ there is hope for all of us to see change in the things that we all struggle with! Is it always easy? No! Is it usually completely changed? Hardly ever! Can we see progress? Yes! We believe that it is a journey of constant surrender of our wills, desires, our very selves to Jesus every day; that His way is best and is for our good; that true life is only found in an intimate relationship with Him and living in the way He designed for us to live.

Ultimately we believe that this is all about lifting high the name of Jesus; that He wants us to live in such a way that will be for His greatest glory and our greatest good; that actually living for His greatest glory will be for our greatest good! The key questions we all must ask ourselves are:

1. Who is the Lord of our lives? Who are we living for?

2. Is our greatest desire to know Him and honor Him in all that we think, say and do?

3. Will we keep following Him and obeying Him even when it is tough? Even when it seems contrary to our own nature and affections? Even if we never see the change we desire?

That is the challenge that we all face each and every day. Sometimes we succeed and sometimes we fail but that is where we are so grateful for the incredible love, grace and mercy of God!! Jesus Christ is truly our only hope!!
