I like how you shared your personal story! It was interesting to see another LGBTQ person who was raised Christian, and to see how you have connected to your faith as an adult.
I really like how you highlighted the challenges that LGBTQ youth face when their family doesn’t offer acceptance and how affirming churches can step in to provide a sense of belonging and spiritual support. The idea that no one should have to choose between their faith and their identity is so powerful. I also appreciate that you included personal anecdotes — they really helped illustrate the emotional journey many go through and made the message even more impactful.
