As part of the UP Center's educational workshop series during Pride Fest, Rev. Leah Robberts-Mosser will be presenting Biblical Self-Defense for LGBTQIA Folks & Allies. Ever noticed how certain Biblical passages get used as weapons against LGBTQIA folk? Learn the history and context of these so-called "clobber passages" AND learn what scripture passages affirm the goodness and worth of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual people at “Biblical Self-Defense for LGBTQIA Folk and Allies.” Leah Robberts-Mosser is the lead Pastor at Community United Church of Christ, Champaign, IL (CUCC). CUCC is the church with the rainbow flags on campus and is a congregation that has been publically open to and affirming of LGBTQIA people since 1995.
