Description

A group for Christian Gay Men residing in and around Chennai with the following objectives:
1. Provide a non-sexual safe space for Christian Gay Men to discuss aspects of faith and experience God's amazing grace, presence and compassion
2. Post prayer requests
3. Post information on worship services and fellowship exclusively for gay Christian men in and around Chennai
4. Enable a greater understanding of the heart of God by providing a studied and accurate interpretation of the Bible

Many of us who grew up in the Christian circle in Chennai (CSI, Assemblies of God, Pentecostal Mission, Lutheran, Apostolic, Methodist, RC etc.) have struggled with the question of our sexuality in view of the 'clobber' passages in Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Romans etc. We've often felt 'excluded' in our churches as it judges and condemns homosexuality in very harsh terms sometimes eventuating in many among our community dropping out of church, abandoning the faith and in most cases settling for a marriage with a woman despite knowing that it will not result in a fulfilling consummation of the physical and emotional selves just in order to conform with the politically correct albeit 'illformed' views of the Church. This group seeks to help those who struggle with questions about their sexuality to come to terms with it knowing that God does not make mistakes when he fearfully and wonderfully made each of us in his Image and that we are valued and precious in his sight. Let each of us stay cognizant of the fact that Jesus loves us enough to include us as part of his redemptive purpose and his Grace is sufficient for us. Amen!
