Here’s What Leaders Are Saying
“This was absolutely life changing. I know God has used this to change my heart and bring his kingdom in a new measure to my ministry. I can’t tell you how excited I am for what the future holds. The church needing a posture shift is on God’s heart, and I know it’s going to rock this nation.”
– Pastor David H.
“People have come to me for resources on relating well to LGBT+ people, but I was coming up empty-handed. Posture Shift Virtual Intensive has forever changed my approach to relating with LGBTQ+ people. Through Posture Shift, I’ve experienced both a wake-up call and a missional call.”
Pastor Marjie C.
“25% of my youth group is LGBTQ+. I thought I was doing a good job loving these students, but I had to do some big-time repentance. Since Posture Shift Virtual Intensive, I have a second chance to walk with these kids. God’s love for them is in my heart, and I’m believing for their salvation.”
– Pastor Mitchell D.
