The Middle is a mid-monthly substack newsletter, exploring what it means to live in the in-between spaces of life. Of the people I know, one of the most middling of spaces to live is in the intersection of Christianity and LGBTQIA2S+ identity, particularly for those who are not safe to be “out” and affirmed in their queer identities.

To honour this unique experience and to create a space to celebrate pride for those who cannot celebrate publicly, The Middle June 2024 is opening up for anonymous submissions for those quietly holding a Queer identity. If you’d like to participate, please use the form below by June 14th.

Thoughts to Consider:
What is it like to hold space between your Christian and Queer identities? How has faith helped or hindered your process? What are you learning about what it means to be human as you hold this space? What are you learning about God as you hold this space? If you take a deep breath and check in with yourself today, what does your soul want to write about your experience?
