At our Identity in Christ conference with Tim and Kathy Keller in June 2018 we launched our Living Out Church Audit – a tool to help church leadership teams answer this key question: how biblically inclusive is your church? Unsurprisingly our focus is on those who might identify as LGBTQ+/ same-sex attracted: Jesus included all in a counter-cultural way and we hope this audit will help our churches follow his lead.
In the video below Ed Shaw explains how he used the audit with his elders at the church he serves in Bristol, UK.
