  • Paul Darminio: Embracing the Divinity of Queer Folx Has a Price
    2024/11/11

    Mark speaks with Paul Darminio, about the challenges LGBTQ+ individuals face within religious spaces, touching on themes of love, acceptance, and the importance of safe environments for asking hard questions. They share personal experiences, discuss the harm of conversion therapy, and examine church dynamics, stressing the need for the church to evolve into a place of healing and unconditional love. The conversation underscores the pain caused by rigid structures and the hope for a more inclusive future in faith communities, along with Paul's personal challenges he faces staying in a denomination with doctrines that conflict with his beliefs.

    Key Takeaways:

    Safe spaces are essential for open, genuine questions.

    Open and relational theology provides a fresh perspective on God.

    Understanding theodicy is vital for maintaining faith through suffering.

    Personal experiences shape our grasp of diversity.

    Conversion therapy has enduring negative effects on individuals.

    LGBTQ+ youth face significant mental health challenges.

    The church should be a place of healing and love.

    Navigating family dynamics in a non-affirming church is difficult.

    Unconditional love lies at the heart of Jesus' teachings.
