I realise that this can be a very difficult position for conservative Christians to accept and understand, but I believe that those who are truth seekers, and are open to seeing how God’s grace and love is extended to the LGBT community, will find an acceptance in God’s Word that will surprise them.

I believe the Bible has been misread for two millennia on this issue.

I don’t believe that we have to ignore certain parts of Scripture, writing them off as cultural or outdated in order to do this. I don’t believe that any twisting of God’s Word is required in order to see that we can accept homosexuality and approve same sex marriage, based on Scripture and what we understand of God. This is not due to pressure from society or to recent legislation changes in some countries, but rather through an in-depth study of God’s Word. I have become convinced that the traditional Christian approach to the topic of homosexuality and to same sex marriage is incorrect, and needs to be adjusted. For the past ten years, I have been reading, writing and researching on the issue of Christians, the Bible and homosexuality.
