Overcoming Rapture Trauma

0:00 0:00

Summary

In this Love Letter, Rev. Sex grapples with the traditional Christian belief that non-Christians and individuals who do not conform to certain religious norms are destined for hell. Reflecting on personal experiences and teachings within the queer and trans community, the speaker questions whether a loving God would condemn people to eternal damnation. The conclusion is to decolonize their faith by rejecting a controlling and punitive image of God, and instead embracing a more inclusive and compassionate understanding of Christianity.
