Questions about ReStory
What we do, what we believe, and how you can be involved.
ReStory is a group of leaders who've been impacted by homosexuality, some who have struggled with it personally, some who have had LGBTQ loved ones, and some who have spent decades ministering to LGBTQ people. We're responding to LGBTQ by equipping pastors, supporting families, and assisting churches to become healing communities, because we believe that when the Church is equipped, new stories of transformation are told.
