Truth-Telling

My Quest for a Spiritual Home by Rachel (Richard) Miller


Coming Out to my Congregation by Brenda Thompson

As a church family you have been wonderful to me as Bob, and it is my sincere desire and prayer that this will continue as my life continues to change, and as I enter my new gender role as Brenda.
 
 
A Presbyterian Clergywoman speaks on "deceit" by Rev. Dr. Erin K. Swenson
So I deeply disagree with the charge that I am being deceitful and a source of shame for the people of God. On the contrary, I believe that the truth I live in is a truth the people of God are struggling to understand.

Let the Walls Fall Down by Rachel (Richard) Miller

In His love no walls between us, / In His love a common ground. / Kneeling at the cross of Jesus, /All our pride comes tumbling down.
 
 
Don't Forgive Me by StarChild
I don't believe I need to be forgiven for being who I am. I don't believe that Jesus forgives me for being a Transsexual, but calls me to be my True Self.

Scripture and Intersexuality

Intersexuality and Scripture by Sally Gross


It's hard to change gender in private! I found a supportive church at First Baptist of Berkeley and then thought, "There must be one in Iowa City," and there was. I am Episcopalian, and have been accepted fully at Trinity Church in Iowa City. My style is not gender-challenging: I regard myself as just one of the ladies of the church.
