Like Karen has checked my head for lice.







One time we shared a bed and only one of us got bedbugs.

* How did her church respond?* How did her friends and community respond?* What did they do/say that was helpful? What did they do/say that was hurtful?* How can we love our LGBTQ+ friends well?







She shares her story of her own faith deconstruction and where she’s found her place in the greater Church community.
