“MOM, DAD… I’M GAY.” A CHRISTIAN PARENT’S RPONSE
Comg out to your parents n be a very difficult nversatn. You might be feelg nervo, sad, or even aaid to tell your parents that you are gay. You n have this talk if you prepare for properly and then iate a uful... * dad i am gay *
LGBT is still a popular term ed to discs genr and sexual mori, but all GSRM are wele beyond lbian, gay, bisexual, and transgenr people who nsent to participate a safe space. Rachel Held Evans nclus her blog post If my son or dghter were gay wh this paragraph:.
If God bls Dan and me wh a child who is gay, I would want that child to know whout a doubt that he or she is loved unndnally. I believe Rachel’s motivatn is to create a more welg and lovg environment the church for those who intify themselv as homosexuals, or who stggle wh homosexual sire.
IS YOUR DAD GAY—OR ARE YOU A GAY DAD?
I admire and agree wh her motive, and mt say that I’ve learned om her this area of beg much more reful how I speak and wre about homosexualy.
First, she don’t munite any ncern about the sfulns of homosexual sir nor the immoraly of homosexual actns. She seems to nvey that homosexual sir are not part of human brokenns, and that to pursue homosexual practic do not have any bearg on a person’s relatnship wh Christ. ” There is no ditn that she se anythg wrong or unbiblil about homosexualy.
Send, Rachel seems to intify everyone who tak the view that homosexual sir are part of broken human sfulns, and that homosexual actns are s, as bulli. However, ’s irrponsible and unfair to group all who say that homosexualy is immoral as bulli of Christ’s ltle on.
IM GAY AND IM ATTRACTED TO MY FATHER..
What do you mean by “I thk I’m gay”?
Are you therefore planng to pursue homosexual relatnships? Sixth, if your son agre that homosexualy is sful, and he wants to have victory over the temptatns, then there are many Gospel promis you n enurage him wh.
However, if he says that he believ homosexualy to be okay and he’s cid to pursue , then while assurg him of your ntued love and re, you mt lovgly warn him of the spirual and physil dangers of homosexualy.
HOW TO TELL YOUR PARENTS YOU ARE GAY
Seventh, I’d enurage the son not to see himself as a homosexual, not to fe himself by his sexualy. Rather I’d want him to see himself as creature ma God’s image, a man wh many parts to his inty, a person wh many gifts, a son wh a diverse character and personaly, one part of which, at least for the moment, is to have a homosexual sir. Eighth, I would ask him to keep g to church, pecially as homosexualy is sometim the rult of worshippg self rather than God (Romans 1:24-25).
But I would ask his permissn to let the pastor know about his suatn bee I’d want to urge the pastor to greater sensivy towards those stgglg wh homosexualy. Like Rachel, I too have wced and crged as preachers have nmned homosexualy as if is an unfiveable abomatn that only weird and wicked people outsi of church stggled wh. Is somehow nceivable that there are some our church who have stggled wh homosexual sire and have fallen to s this area?
Where I do disagree wh Rachel, is her refal to accept that hell and judgment are any part of the Christian msage about s, cludg homosexual s.
I’M GAY AND AIN AMERIN. AS A DAD, I STILL HAVE EASIER THAN WORKG MOMS.
Y, the Gospel wel sners, heterosexual and homosexual sners, but, thanks be to God, do not leave there (1 Cor. Are you a dghter whose dad is gay?
AM I GAY?
Or are you a gay dad? gay: 1.
Most children whose dads are gay were born while their blogil mom and blogil dad were married and livg together.
If you have a gay dad or a lbian mom, after they separate, which of them is most likely to remarry or to remarry and then divorce? Lbian moms are more likely than gay dads to marry their same-sex partner.
THE GAY FATHER I NEVER KNEW
But gay dads are ls likely to get divorced om their hbands than lbian moms are to get divorced om their wiv.
