You live here

Too traditional for one side.
Too compassionate for the other.

You hold a traditional ethic. You love everyone in your pews — including LGBT+ people and their families.

And you feel the pressure from every direction.

The student who comes out during youth group. The parent who calls in tears. The email asking what your church really believes. The conflicts that rise up when you try to be generous.

Most pastors have a position on LGBT+ questions. Far fewer have a plan for the moment those questions surface.

You don't have to navigate this alone — and you don't have to choose between truth and love.

The plan

Three Thursdays. Three Questions. One Plan.

Each Thursday, 1:00–2:00 PM Eastern: 30 minutes of focused content, then 30 minutes of honest dialogue with other pastors who get it. Led by Bill Henson, founder of Posture Shift — 20 years equipping churches to care well for LGBT+ people and their families.

Week 1 — October 29

Belonging Without Compromise

How can we love LGBT+ people without compromising our beliefs?

LGBT+ people have heard "all are welcome" before — and most don't believe it anymore. You'll get a missiological framework for shifting your posture without shifting your beliefs.

Week 2 — November 5

The Answer Before You Need It

How do we best respond when asked about our church's beliefs?

The greeting-line question. The social media comment. The email you dread. You'll build a thoughtful, confident response before the moment arrives — not during it.

Week 3 — November 12

Leading In A Time of Backlash

How do we live out a posture shift without blowing up our church?

Caring personally is one thing. Leading a whole congregation is another. You'll walk through the Implement Blueprint — your first five steps — and leave with a plan your team can actually follow.

What you get

Come for the clarity.
Leave with a plan.

  • Three live sessions with Bill Henson and other pastors like you — content plus real dialogue, not a webinar you watch alone
  • The Implement Blueprint (PDF) — your first five steps, yours to keep
  • 50% off a Posture Shift 1-Day Intensive (Winter/Spring 2027) — go deeper with your whole team
  • Bring your team: $99.99 covers three leaders from your church.

This work doesn't stick when one pastor gets equipped and goes home alone. Register your elders and staff to join you.

Who it's for

Built for pastors caught in the middle.

This cohort is for leaders of any church or para-church ministry who:

  • Hold a traditional sexual ethic — and want to keep holding it
  • Love LGBT+ people and their families — and want to love them well
  • Are tired of choosing between compromise and culture war
  • Want a plan — not just a position — for their church

If that's you, this is your room.

Questions

Before You Ask

Will this ask us to change our theology?

No. We never ask churches to change their theology. We help you shift your posture — how you welcome, speak, and walk with LGBT+ people and their families — within your biblical convictions.

Who should come from our church?

Three leaders are included, and we strongly encourage you to use all three seats. The pastors who get the most from this bring the people who'll be in the room when the hard questions come. Bring as many leaders as you can.

What happens after I register?

You'll get a confirmation from Eventbrite right away, with your Zoom link and everything you need. We'll send reminders before each Thursday session.

Is this a debate about theology?

No. This is practical equipping: language, posture, and leadership. Thirty minutes of content, thirty minutes of conversation with pastors facing the same questions.

Can I connect with posture shift and other pastors after the 3 week event?

Yes. We offer an optional Whatsapp group chat to foster dialogue with our Posture Shift team and cohort partners.
