My queer preaching.

Sometimes I can’t believe the things I get to do. Today was one of those days.

I’ve been working with my friends at The Bridge Church in Abbotsford, BC for a few months as they moved toward becoming an officially affirming church. They invited me to be the guest speaker for this service, and it was a truly moving time. They have posted the video online, which is posted below. I also linked my text from my (queer) “sermon” below that.

Sheesh, I never thought I’d be an artist that sometimes does queer preaching BUT I AM HERE FOR IT!

At the end of the service, I shared a Blessing that I had written for this community on this special day. Thanks to the team at The Bridge for putting it into beautiful graphics!
