What people say

Alton B. Pollard, III Ph.D., Dean, Howard University School of Divinity

Many Voices is an open invitation for all of God’s children to explore and celebrate what it means to be faithfully human.  No matter where you are on the journey with respect to sexual orientation and gender – seeker, believer, saint, unsure – there are resources here to nurture your soul and nourish our collective hunger for the fullness of community.  Whosoever will, let them come!

Marvin M. Ellison, Co-Editor, Sexuality and the Sacred

Kudos to Many Voices for offering high quality, accessible online resources for those who are exploring the links among sexuality, spirtuality, and social justice.  Whether you're on your own quest, looking for educational materials, or planning a worship service, you'll find up-to-date guidance that is ethically principled, scientifically sound, and spiritually enriching. 

Scott Haldeman, Assoc. Professor, Chicago Theological Seminary

Many Voices(manyvoices.org) will be the “go to” site for members of communities of faith who are exploring how they can communicate a message of welcome to those who other churches have rejected. The assumption that anyone who is not heterosexual is therefore not capable of authentic faith is fading; a new era of welcome for people who inhabit the full range sexual orientation and gender expression is at hand. Many Voices appears at just the right time to aid in this transformation of how to be church, of what discipleship looks like.

There are 'many voices' crying out for hospitality and justice.  In response, Holy Scripture offers good news for the marginalized and disenfranchised. 

The new website, Many Voices, invites the faithful to boldly engage in, sometimes difficult conversations.  To do so will lead to a faith changing contribution. Visit the website, take the stories to heart, be inspired by the music and take a new step toward liberating your worship space. 

Chris Paige, Founder, TransFaith Online

Too often, gender diversity is considered as an afterthought in explorations of inclusion. I'm delighted that Many Voices is committed to being a space that will resource and engage the community in all its beautiful, gender-full diversity!
