I begin with mention of some articles worth reading about the bad behaviour of people who say they believe in God, but who wants to know a God like they believe!!!
Kenya's President William Ruto and fear of LGBTIQ people: theshorturl.at/ahUVY
And blogger Jonathan Poletti's (93,000 followers on Medium) article on mega pastor TV evangelist
"A child rape scandal at John MacArthur’s church has Evangelicals brawling": theshorturl.at/moJV5
The podcast doesn't claim to be Christian but some of our interviews will be with practicing Christians who embody the message of love and inclusion that great people of faith, and no faith at all, have embraced throughout history.
This interview is with Ross Murray, a gay man married to his husband, and a Deacon in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Ross is the founding director of The Naming Project, a faith-based youth ministry and summer camp for LGBTQ youth and their allies. He has worked with youth and families in a variety of settings, and presented LGBTQ youth ministry throughout America.
In his day job, Ross is Vice President of Education & Training at the GLAAD Media Institute, providing activist, spokesperson, and media engagement training and education for the LGBTQ community members, corporations, the media industry and advocacy organizations desiring to accelerate acceptance for the LGBTQ community. Ross has secured national media interest in stories that bring examples of LGBTQ equality across diverse communities in America, with a speciality in the relationship between religion and LGBTQ people.
He is a producer for the “Yass, Jesus!” podcast, a faith and sexuality-affirming podcast that believes you don’t have to pick between gay and God. In 2014, he was named one of Mashable’s “10 LGBT-Rights Activists to Follow on Twitter.”
His book, Made, Known, Loved: Developing LGBTQ-Inclusive Youth Ministry is available from Fortress Press. Ross has also contributed to two books focused on LGBTQ Christian youth: Queerfully and Wonderfully Made and Welcoming and Affirming. He is a member of the 2021 OUT100 and was named one of Mashable’s “10 LGBT-Rights Activists to Follow on Twitter.”
