Q Spirit
Every Thursday night at 7:00 pm, a group of people of all ages gathers to take
an in-depth, up-close-and-personal look at how God is working in our lives, our
community, and our world. A word of
caution—Q Spirit is NOT your typical
Bible study! We don’t stay on the
surface of things—we dig deeply into ourselves, our faith, our community, and
our spirits as God’s beloved gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, and
straight ally people. Our discussion
might be a several-week series of related topics centered around a common theme,
or it might be centered around the lectionary cycle of readings. Whatever format we choose, our discussion is always lively…always passionate…always
relevant to the life, issues, spirit, and well-being of God’s beloved GLBTA
people…and it’s always led from a spiritual perspective. In our discussion we bring in what the
Christian scripture has to say about things, and we look at other
perspectives—Buddhist, Islam, spiritualist, ecological, etc. You name it, we
look at it and how it affects us spiritually.
We talk about the things that many folks are afraid to talk about: AIDS, sexuality, civil rights, gays and the
church, coming out, human rights, justice, and most of all—God’s love, care and
purpose for us just as we are.
