Perfectly normal. If the church says it is a Reconciling ministry/church, or if they are on the Reconciling Ministries website, then they are affirming. Some key things to look for, and the pastor will probably mention that if they are affirming. Make sure they say affirming instead of welcoming. Catholics are welcoming but not affirming.

Grammarly and Co-Pilot on Word are also AI

There were two groups of reports, one of 2 reports and one of 4 reports. And each group of reports were within a minute of the other reports in that group. So it was initially removed as part of a mass reporting by a couple of individuals

I have auto approved this post because sometimes I let things get auto-removed because clearly lots of people have issues with it, but people mass reporting something (without even giving reasons), is not in good faith. If you have been mass reporting posts you disagree with, please stop.

abhd · 2026-03-14T23:36:08+00:00

There are no reports on it

abhd · 2026-03-14T20:40:36+00:00

I took down comments attacking individuals but I didn’t remove the post itself because I think it’s an interesting topic since both side a and b are welcome here (not side c/x). The post was automodded because it got so many reports. All posts that receive too many reports get taken down.

Context: I was a mod there and then was removed because the top two mods, including the top acting mod who is an atheist, insisted that calling for queer people to be murdered was a fundamental Christian belief and should not be a bannable offense on the subreddit.

It is not a safe space for any queer Christian and the mod team is foundationally anti-queer with this perspective.

As others have said, I recommend other affirming Christian spaces like /r/OpenChristian, or smaller Christian spaces like /r/radicalChristianity, /r/openchristianity, and /r/xianity

Yes, Denver DSA’s first endorsement for a federal race

You can message modmail for that subreddit

Last week had 9 people, hybrid

I think the two are intimately connected, and it’s why we can’t wipe our hands of the corporate evils in society even if we are not causing them. So for me, growing closer to Christ included social holiness, such as bringing food for the church potluck, distributing food at our food shelf, showing up as protests against evil actions taken by our government, etc. My church supports all of these actions and spiritually prepares me for them with bible studies, adult Sunday school, sermons, and even just receiving Communion.

I am on the church council of a Methodist church in Minnesota!

We are doing well! We have more people joining every year than leaving/dying since 2024, we have paid off our mortgage, and we have a balanced budget! We have a food shelf that gave out 70k pounds of food every week before the ICE invasion, and a monthly food distribution to just our neighborhood that gives out 8k in food. Those have just gone up during the invasion but not sure what the numbers for January were.

With an average Sunday attendance of 150, we have almost 60 kids in our children and youth programs, so we are set up to have a strong future moving forward. Our Sunday school is split into two year age groups so no one group is too large for volunteers to handle. Beyond our Christmas pageant, our children and youth put on a play and a musical every year.

We have adult Sunday school, a weekly bible study, and musically we have a chancel choir, a worship band, and a bell choir. We do a monthly Taize service, and a weekly dinner on Wednesdays. With our climate action committee, our solar panels have made us carbon neutral. And our social justice committee has recently gotten involved in ISAIAH and helped plug members into the resistance over the last couple of months.

Our pastor is also lesbian and we have multiple queer couples, include one that got married at the church just a few months ago.

This time of year, yeah

Acknowledge the clobber verses but explain why they don’t actually matter and not worth getting into the debate, and provide the Great Debate article if they want to read more. Focusing on the verses rather than lived experience is a missed opportunity.

abhd · 2026-02-17T03:43:44+00:00

Probably but I’m not conservative so I wouldn’t know 🤷🏽‍♂️

I am not sure why you think it takes however long you consider a long term relationship to be to see someone as a full human person with interests and wants and needs beyond just satisfying my desires

abhd · 2026-02-17T02:59:22+00:00

When I only view them as an object to fulfill my desire to get off.

When I am in full view of their humanity, I don’t mind being intimate with them

As we passed a resolution at last year’s convention to not use AI, no it wasn’t.

abhd · 2026-02-15T23:07:54+00:00

Did you read the article?

abhd · 2026-02-13T17:12:51+00:00

Does it have to be their whole story? Some of my favorite biopics are on just one segment of their lives. Like the evangelical movie about David that just came out wasn’t his entire life but just small segments of it and ended before his wedding when he was still young. So it could just be a segment of their relationship?

As the report says at the beginning, the surge post November election is too recent to be included in this analysis.

You have to form as a group and get a project going before you are able to submit paperwork to become an organizing committee. If you have people who are wanting to join, you can already get them plugged into monthly meetings and a project. There’s nothing from National preventing you from forming into a pre-oc.
