Is It Worth the Risk?
What if affirming LGBTQ Christians is not the greater risk?
In this reflection, Dr. Gregory S. Neal responds to one of the most common questions asked in conversations about faith, Scripture, and LGBTQ inclusion: “Is it really worth the risk?”
With honesty shaped by Scripture, prayer, conversion therapy, marriage, ministry, and decades of wrestling with God, Greg asks whether Christians have considered the risk on the other side — the risk of wrongly judging LGBTQ people, dismissing the fruit of the Spirit in their lives, and making God’s grace smaller than our certainty.
This is a deeply personal and theological reflection on faith, interpretation, repentance, judgment, and the grace of Jesus Christ.
What Is Conversion Therapy?
Conversion therapy is any practice, counseling, ministry, program, or spiritual intervention that begins with the assumption that being LGBTQ is wrong, broken, sinful, disordered, evil, demonic, or unacceptable, and then seeks to change, suppress, “heal,” or “deliver” someone from their sexual orientation or gender identity.
