To every girl who was told her calling was unbiblical… this is for you.

Jen Hatmaker speaks straight to the "good Christian" girls", who stayed compliant, even when their souls are cracking open with gifts too big to fit inside the boxes they were given.

I created The Sacred Slope because Christianity has never been one thing
Our faith is global, diverse, wildly beautiful:
🌍 on every continent
🏳️‍🌈 queer believers
👩‍⚕️ women, femmes in leadership
🕊️ liberals, moderates, conservatives
🎨 pastors, artists, mystics
🌈 every color

What do you do when the word ‘gay’ becomes true for you in a world that told you God would “fix” you? Mike Maeshiro's story hits deep for so many of us who grew up evangelical

I’m grateful he shared his story
So we can honor what he carries
so we can care for our neighbors

Are you allowing yourself to be taught by pastors AND Bible Scholars? Do you know what the different atonement theories are? Or were you only taught PSA?
