A lesbian Christian visits Israel

When a Christian lesbian makes her first trip to Israel, her experiences are sure to be different from the usual Holy Land travelogues.

I was touched and I laughed out loud -- sometimes both at the same time -- when I read Rev. Nancy Wilson’s account of her recent tour of Israel. Nancy is moderator of Metropolitan Community Churches and a leader in the GLBT Christian movement.  She gave me permission to share some highlights on the Jesus in Love Blog.  Click here for highlights from her amazing queer spiritual journey.

wow! thanks for this...it's wonderful. in all our bible study classes we look at the maps of the area and point out where this or that took place. it must be almost overwhelming to actually be there, to see the same ground that Jesus walked on. to be on the sea that Jesus walked across while peter nearly fainted. how does one keep their feet under them when they are on calvary hill? i can really feel that giddiness just thinking about it. i think i might just fully expect to be raised right up then and there to the kingdom in the sky. oh my, oh my. thanks again. much love and hope, pj

What a wonderfully written blog you have here. It's going to be added to my links.

Also, this is a really interesting post. My partner and I are contemplating a trip to Africa to volunteer during Christmas.

Thanks for sharing the exeriences of spiritual LGBTs.
