In today's episode of "Remote Pastoral Care," we get what is quite possibly the greatest crossover event in denominational history! Ok...at least the greatest crossover event in the history of Unfinished Community, at any rate.

This week we we are joined by both our regular contributors, Courtney Fraley and Steve Augustin, as well as Rev. Dr. JJ Flag of the United Church of Christ, and Chaplain Emmie Arnold of the Presbyterian Church, USA. We start with the general question of why the church has historically been so hateful towards our friends in the LGBTQUA+ community...and then the conversation takes on a life of it's own; you really have to see it (or at least hear it) to believe it!

In fact, we all talked so long that today's episode got divided into TWO FULL EPISODES, with the second coming next week! Tune in next Friday for part 2 of this exciting conversation!

Of course, if you're hungry for more, come join us on Discord! As an online church community, our Discord server is the place where we all come together, 24/7, in fellowship and interaction with each other around the globe. There's threads on just about every topic imaginable, including a running Bible study (starting a new topic next week!), prayer-chains, general geekery, and even a place for angry, irreverent ranting. You can find the link to the server at our website below, and if you run into any problems, feel free to send Pastor Don an email directly ([email protected]) and he'll get you sorted.   See you out there!   WEBSITE: pastorkuma.wixsite.com/unfinished
