The militant part of me wants you to show up with a stack of books and DVDs and hijack the entire training session with pro-lgbtetc Christian theologies.

But the part of me that remembers needing to be in the closet for safety understand that this isn't always possible or safe.

Things to consider in the meantime:

Find a local LGBT group, christian or not, that you can join.
Come on here and socialize.
Find a group on Discord or Facebook
Join an MCC zoom virtual church regardless of your location.
Self-study: check out these books and other resources that helped me bulletproof my faith as a queer christian:

I'm a gay Christian who has been singing with a Jewish chorus for a number of years now and been celebrating some of the holy days with Jewish friends for a long time now, and staying to get into the theologies and deeper mysteries of "the ancient faith".

So I'm just on the other side of the mirror, so to speak.

If you're looking for queer Christian resources, these have been very helpful in my journey, and they might be useful for you too.

You are loved, and lovingly made by a loving God-who-is-Love.

And queer people are part of the loving plan, not some kind of defect.

There's an entire world of queer theology out there, undoing the sin of homophobia and transphobia one page at a time.

Here are a bunch of resources that helped me break free of the toxic false theologies of my family and reach a deeper understanding of God.

I suggest starting with the first book and the two by Rev. Dr Cheng.

Discover that God loves you and that your sexuality is not a sin, but a gift.

Here's some resources that helped me:

Some of these have been helpful in discussing queer theology with my mother at least (my father is a sign-waving buffoon now, just a couple steps removed from the Westboro Baptist Church freaks). But it can be really REALLY hard to talk to Catholics about this stuff if they have drunk the koolaid about the infallibility of the magisterium or the pope or what have you.

Try giving him some of these resources to help him find a more loving understanding of the Bible.

I especially recommend the first 2 books, and the 2 by Rev. Dr. Patrick Cheng.
