Frank Parmir is an organizer with the organization Muslims for Progressive Values. Christianity and United Methodism is not the only arena of religion and faith where discussions of LGBTQ persons is taking place. Alex and Josh speak with Frank about what his faith tells him about this topic and how he arrived at his stance of acceptance and inclusion within his own faith context.

Recorded on 2/7/17.

The purpose of 'We Are Compatible' is to explore the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals and families as well as their allies in order to show that, regardless of what the United Methodist Book of Discipline may say, they are, in fact, compatible. Please join hosts, Alex Shanks and Josh Culbertson, as they explore these stories of courageous authenticity.
