The Scribe: The Christmas Christ Became Real to Me
Today I was reflecting on how the holidays can be so difficult for so many people. I was praying for those I know who are struggling. I reflected on a time in my life when I felt so alone and sad. I felt like God wanted me to share…so here goes. I am a...
The Scribe: All I want is Jesus
I lay awake at night strangled by the tensions of denominational debate about who is and who is not entitled to this or that. Let’s learn about this denomination because some are finally becoming affirming, let’s debate this churches approach- and all that comes to me...
The Scribe: The Power of Your Testimony
Last month I wrote about “Changing the Narrative about being LGBTIQA+ persons. The narrative that says: You are broken. The devil has gotten a hold of you. You are giving in to the flesh. God does not love you. God will not love you until you change. You can change....
The Scribe: Changing the Narrative about LGBTIQ+ Christians
We are currently in a time where LGBTIQ+ Christians are (and rightfully so) challenging the narrative (stories) about who we are and who others perceive us to be. This narrative has been developed and unfortunately, adopted by many LGBTIQ+ Christians through cultural...
The Scribe: A passionate week for LGBTIQ+ people of faith
Palm Sunday. It’s the day we celebrate Jesus triumphant entrance into Jerusalem to celebrate his last Passover meal before going to the cross and rising again on what we now celebrate as Easter Sunday. He enters the city riding on a donkey to shouts of Hosanna,...
The Scribe: Be Seen in 2019
TO MY LGBTIQ+A FAMILY AND FRIENDS You being seen as LGBTIQ+A and Christian is an encouragement to someone else to come out and be seen. I wonder if we realise the encouragement that we offer to others when we come out as people of faith; no longer hiding this part of...
The Scribe: Shepherds, Get Understanding
In the book of Isaiah, the prophet foretold that a shoot would come up from the root of Jesse (Jesse was King David’s father). In the Greek it reads, “In that day the heir to David’s throne will come”. This verse refers to the continuity of David’s royal...
The Scribe: Good News; Getting Better
I was chatting with a friend the other day. We were talking about how God was using us in various areas to bridge a gap between mainstream conservative Christians, and the LGBTIQ Christian community. My friend speaks with mainstream churches while I pastor an...
The Scribe: God of The Entire Rainbow
I recently attended the Awakening Australia Conference held here in Melbourne over the weekend of 13-14 October. I purchased three tickets in case some in my church wanted to join me. Not surprisingly, I had no takers. Being a Lesbian Pentecostal Pastor at Melbourne...
The Scribe: What If and What Now?
The Lord has asked me to ask What if...... The Body of Christ chose to focus on Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount? What if that was the platform for our engagement with one another and the world around us? Do you think that maybe people would see the real Jesus and...
The Scribe: A Journey of a Thousand Miles
The Chinese proverb ascribed to Laozi says that "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" and I believe this to be true with one exception. I believe that the journey of a thousand miles begins with the faith to actually take that first step and the...
The Scribe: Love v Law, the news is good!
In the Old Testament, the Jewish people were welcome to worship God. The Jewish people after all were the chosen ones; meant to represent God. Jesus Christ came on the scene and immediately the tables were turned forever, (no pun intended). Many Jewish people...
The Scribe: Return of the Exiles
Over the years God has developed in me a passion for the Old Testament stories of captivity and more importantly the return of the exiles to Israel. Throughout scripture we read of imperfect people connecting with a perfect God whose constant cry is "I will be their...
The Scribe
I call this blog "The Scribe" because I don't see myself as a writer or blogger, in fact creative writing is not an area where I excel. God knows this about me; knows how this very process oriented, right brain works and so we have a deal. God will dictate and direct,...
