Reclamation Resource Ministries

Not everyone who has homosexual feelings desires to be gay. Unfortunately, both Christians and non-Christians are told they have one of two options. The first message is that they were born gay and they need to accept themselves the way God created them. God loves and accepts them the way they are. This leads to homosexual strugglers to accept a false identity and denies them any hope for change. 

The second message is that God hates homosexuality and hate homosexuals. The only option is for homosexuals to stop choosing to have those feelings, or at least not give in to the urge to sexually act out on their desires. This results in shame, condemnation, and isolation, leaving homosexual strugglers to suffer in silence.

We want to offer another option: that real and lasting change is available. We want to both proclaim that change is available and to come alongside those seeking change in their life. We also want to motivate and train the body of Christ to provide a place for those seeking God’s will for their sexual identity. 

Likewise, family members of persons with homosexual feelings need a safe place to share their concerns – without being forced to affirm the homosexual behavior of their loved ones or being accused of homophobia, hate, bigotry, etc., if they can’t in good conscience accept homosexuality as a viable lifestyle. Support groups are needed that will foster understanding, teach respect for differing opinions, and encourage reconciliation through healthy relating without the need to affirm homosexual behavior as good or right.
