For Pastors / Ministry leaders
Posture Shift Intensive
Our 2-Day Posture Shift Intensive is a top training and consulting resource for church and ministry leadership teams. It is the most comprehensive training available, and we train teams across the globe with this course. Designed to address the needs of governance, executive, pastoral, and lay leaders, this two-day in-person team learning experience delivers everything your team needs to faithfully honor God and radically love LGBT+ people.
The atmosphere at the Posture Shift Intensive was open, loving, and productive. I left with a renewed sense of hope that extravagant welcome and unconditional love is possible while holding to the biblical view of marriage.
The understanding I received of how LGBT+ people navigate faith was so valuable. As we understand better it is easier to love well. This training will be one of the best things you will do for yourself and those you lead.

Posture Shift provides a really helpful framework, theology, and tools for being able to have a strong position (believing in the traditional, Biblical view of marriage) and a loving posture (radically loving LGBT+ people) - we can be both honoring to God and radically loving to LGBT+ people.
This training is focused on LGBT+ people as a people group and gives practical insights into a missional mindset to reach them. It was helpful for me to focus on actual people and their stories instead of the culture wars that are so loud.
