These statements are based on our attempt to carefully and faithfully read the Scriptures and the premise that humanity is created by God and designed to reflect His glory and His goodness in our desires and behaviors. While each of us bears God’s image, the introduction of sin has resulted in disordered desires and behaviors in each of us.

These show up acutely in our human sexuality. We would be remiss not to situate this conversation within the arc of the salvation narrative: that God has provided rescue in Jesus for every wayward desire and proclivity within us. By placing faith in Him we are re-born—the power of His Spirit transforming us into His likeness.
