Equip is the premier consulting and training solution for churches aspiring to be places where gay Christians thrive for a lifetime according to a traditional sexual ethic.
Provide a one-time training to Christian leaders at a church, campus ministry, or Christian university to transform their community into a place where gay people thrive in a traditional sexual ethic.
Many pastors feel alone and under-resourced. Support our free monthly coaching to prepare pastors with the understanding and tools to better minister to gay people in their communities.
Using our Blueprint Process, your gift will help local churches identify the needs of their community, cast a vision for life-giving ministry to LGBT+, and develop a careful strategy to become a thriving community.
