What to NOT SAY (and say) When Someone "Comes Out" as Gay?

It’s becoming more and more coMmon for someone you know to “come out” as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender or questioning. But what should a Christian’s response be? What is the right language to meet someone with compassion yet hold a standard of truth? While discovering these, we realized there are many well-meaning Christians or pastors who think they’re saying the right thing, but cause more hurt and damage to the individual's healing journey. Caleb Boggan, Director of Pastoral Care at CHANGED Movement, has gathered these top ten responses as “Failed First Responses” and helps us know what TO say instead.
