This conference has been designed to share the heart of the Gospel in the midst of the homosexuality conflict.   We want to go beyond the ‘old polarities’ and culture wars that have divided people in the past.  The ministries represented do not support homophobia and are strongly opposed to violence against homosexuals.  Our aim is to help church people to deal with these and many other sexual issues, with understanding, compassion and respect for all people.
