HRC archives a collection of Sermons and Spiritual Reflections by pro-GLBT clergy from across the country. Drawing from the holy texts of their faith traditions, the authors of each selection present perspectives that affirm the lives of the GLBT faithful and advocate for equality from their faith tradition.
