Can I invite you to breathe?

Pause a moment and take a breath.

God isn’t surprised by your child’s revelation.

He can handle the questions:

✓  Is God mad at me?
✓  Why my family?
✓  What will my church say?

✓  Who should (or shouldn't) I tell? *Read the Blog About Disclosure
✓  Is my child going to hell?
✓  What do I say? 
✓  Does God love my child?
✓  Where do I turn?

Fear not, you are not alone.

Hi. I'm Kim

(and that's my grand dog, Theo)

 

I love Jesus.  I love my child, and I’m walking this path with my family. Together, we can walk this road with both truth and tenderness.

  • We’ve navigated imperfectly.
  • We’ve done some things well.
  • We’ve had joys and pains, misunderstandings and growth.

We have hurts. Our children do too.

Everyone’s carrying some collateral damage. 

Our family has learned that every child carries hidden wounds — and every parent carries fear they rarely say out loud. I’m here to help Christian parents navigate those fears with biblical wisdom, compassion, and truth.

If you feel unsure, overwhelmed, protective, heartbroken, deeply confused, or totally alone… you’re in the right place.
I know what it feels like to love your LGBTQ+ child fiercely while trying to hold onto your faith with both hands.

Let's start with a conversation.

I'm glad you're here. 

 I wish I could sit across from you with a warm cup of coffee and look you in the eyes to say: You’re not a bad parent. God isn’t disappointed in you. And you’re not alone.

We may never fully grasp the courage it took for our children to reveal their most vulnerable part of their lives — but we can learn to respond with faith, emotional resilience, and Christlike love.

The Lord will stretch us and teach us to walk this journey with grace. (Spoiler alert, we need a boatload of the stuff.)

If you’re afraid of “doing it wrong,” questioning your reactions, or worried about honoring God while honoring your child—you’re not failing. You’re growing.
