Doug Harrison: A spiritual companion's journey towards Love (Pt. 1)

Let The Light In

Our guest for this episode is Doug Harrison. Doug is not only a personal friend, but also a sought after spiritual director, theologian and ethicist. It’s through his roles as teacher, mentor, and spiritual companion that Doug constantly extends his unique and deep understanding of the need for an ongoing dialogue between the larger church and the LGBTQ community. He issues the call for all who will listen that God is with us here, now, in this moment. He reminds us to be gentle with each other as we seek out identity and meaning as lgbtq people of faith. The first half of this two part interview will explore the themes of transformation, formation, suffering, love and reconciliation by revisiting past experiences of exclusion and isolation. Doug’s vulnerability and openness offer a fresh and vital voice to those who seek out the holy friction between faith and sexuality. Listed below are links to books, articles, or other resources we may have mentioned. Remember to like and follow Let The Light In podcast, Facebook, and Instagram.
