Tuesday
Tuesdays at 5PM ET
Sexuality & Spirituality
Come as you are to a group where LGBTQ+ people of faith can explore the sacred connection between our bodies, our desires, and our spiritual journeys. Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to live with integrity, joy, and wholeness—embracing both our sexuality and our faith without shame. Through meaningful conversation, shared reflection, and mutual encouragement, we’ll untangle harmful messages we've inherited and imagine new, life-giving ways to follow Jesus with our full selves. Whether you’re just beginning this conversation or have been on the path for a while, this is a space to be honest, to heal, and to grow—in community.
Led by: Asa David Coulson (he/him) & Jon Carl Lewis (he/him)
Wednesday
Wednesdays at 7PM ET
Book Study - Sacred Self Care
Join us for a gentle and grounding space to explore the connection between self-care and spiritual life. Together, we’ll reflect on how caring for our bodies, minds, and spirits is not selfish—but sacred. Through reading, discussion, and shared practices, we’ll reclaim rest, nurture resilience, and rediscover the divine within and around us. Come as you are and leave feeling more whole.
Led by: Richard Hinchman (he/him)
Wednesdays at 9PM ET
LGBTQ+ with Non-affirming Parents
Q Christian Fellowship has created this Affinity Group to provide a supportive community to gather and share life experiences of being an LGBTQ+ person with non-affirming parents. This Affinity Group acts as a safe, conversational space with others to process the feelings and potential obstacles individuals may experience in being out as an LGBTQ+ Christian.
Led by: Andy Bearden (he/him) & Victor De Los Santos (he/him)
Friday
Tuesdays at 6:30PM ET
Bible Study: John 3-5
In these powerful chapters of John’s Gospel, we meet seekers, skeptics, and outsiders—each transformed through an encounter with Jesus. Join us as we explore stories of new birth, living water, and radical inclusion. Together, we’ll reflect on what these passages reveal about God’s love, our identity, and the ways faith meets us in our questions. All are welcome as we journey through these sacred texts with honesty, curiosity, and community.
Led by: Stephen Scott & Phoenix Bell-Shelton Biggs
Sunday
Sundays at 2PM ET
Spiritual Practices & Reflections
Open to Allies.
This group is designed to be a casual space for Allies and LGBTQ+ people of faith to cultivate and share in community by participating in different spiritual reflections together.
Led by: Nancy Janisch (she/her) & Regan Saoirse
Sundays at 8PM ET
Parents of LGBTQ+ People
This group offers a supportive space for parents to learn, ask questions, and grow in their understanding of LGBTQ+ identities. Together, we’ll explore affirming language, review key terms, and reflect on what it means to show deep, unconditional love to our LGBTQ+ children. Whether you’re just beginning this journey or seeking to grow in your allyship, you are welcome here—no judgment, just learning, connection, and care.
Led by: Paula Brotherson (she/her) and Tonya Edmisten (she/her)

God is building a home. They are using us all—irrespective of how we got here—in what They are building. God used the apostles and prophets for the foundation. Now God is using you, fitting you in brick by brick, stone by stone, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone that holds all the parts together.
Ephesians 2:20-21The Message Translation
