Families can be some of the most complicated relationships that we have.  Adding elements of religion and queerness can be like adding fuel to an already roaring fire.

On today’s episode I’m joined with Christian parenting experts, LGBTQ2S+ advocates, and the earthly creators of me… yup, this is the first part of my interview with my Mom & Dad.

This is a very special episode for Dads of LGBTQ kids - or about your Dad, or about the Dad of someone you love.

Today, I talk about the core issues unique to being the Father of an LGBTQ child.

I’ll give some tools you can use to understand your kids, deepen your relationships, strengthen your faith, and deal with non-affirming friends, family and those at church.

Dads, it’s just me and you today. Bring your fears, bring your hearts, and let’s talk.

“So, Dads…Your child is gay. Your love for your child seems to somehow conflict with your faith - at least according to what you may hear from Christian friends. Like it or not, you are on the first steps of a journey. What do you do? What kind of Dad will you be?Being gay is not a choice. Whether or not you unconditionally love, accept and affirm your gay child is. Rob is the father of five children, two of whom are part of the LGBTQ+ community. In this episode, he shares with you three real responses from other Dads. And he asks you to think about which one is the most like you?”
