The Certificate in Sexuality and Religion

"Many churches are in crisis today over issues of sexuality. In these painful debates, religion and the interpretation of religious texts and practices often play a defining role in the status and treatment of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) people in religious congregations and the broader society. Today more than ever, strong leaders are needed to provide compassionate and informed guidance on these issues in religious communities and institutions, professional societies, advocacy organizations, and legal and legislative bodies."

— Mary A. Tolbert, Executive Director of CLGS
