2) Establishing a Biblical Basis
Posture Shift Digital Seminar • 18m
Posture Shift serves national, regional and local leadership teams who have a primary obligation to teach and lead with scriptural integrity. The concept of retaining a biblical position while shifting our relational posture must be supported by scripture. It must be supported throughout scripture, not just one or two verses. Attendees of Posture Shift help our team develop a strong biblical apologetic for shifting our posture (actions, attitudes, and words) in order to ensure that LGBT+ people encounter the presence and love of Jesus Christ. You will soon see that both the Old Testament and New Testament offer abundant support for Posture Shift. Ministry in complex contexts is prone to being labeled controversial - or worse, heretical. Remember, Jesus was called a heretic and demonic for loving people whom religious leaders refused to care for. Prepare to take notes and capture a strong biblical foundation in this segment.
