Imagine a room filled with LGBTQ+/SSA Christians from different churches, denominations, and walks of life, lifting their voices together in worship. Different stories, different traditions, yet united in their love for Jesus. Moments when heaven seems to touch earth, and we experience the beauty of being part of the body of Christ.
We bring together LGBTQ+/same-sex attracted Christians, allies, pastors, families, and others who want to explore what it means to follow Jesus faithfully. Whether you share our convictions, aren’t sure where you are in your faith journey, have questions and want to learn, you are welcome here.
Our hope? That you'll leave with renewed faith, fresh encouragement, a deeper sense of belonging, and a few more friends than when you arrived.

"Speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ." Ephesians 4:15
THEMEGrow. Growth. One is a command and the other is a mark of progress. Both are good. Neither are linear. They each require a blend of introspection, curiosity, kindness, patience. They come with hard work, deep sorrow, a supportive community, and unbelievable determination.
Consider an aspen tree. It’s no less an aspen when it begins as a sapling: it has all of the elements required when it towers over the forest. Also, just like an aspen, sometimes growth is measurable between the seasons. Other times, growing happens in secret while creating a massive root system.
For Revoice27, we’ll learn about growing and growth through the intersection of aspens and Ephesians 4. We’ll explore the practical parts of growth as it requires both radical integrity and a willingness to lean into maturity. We’ll sit with the reality that it often takes adversity and mark the hard times we may have experienced. We’ll also live out the joy knowing growth isn’t something which happens individually but includes unity and love of community—not just as buzz words—but as actions. As Paul says it, “[Through Jesus] the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.”
T H E C O N F E R E N C E
J O U R N E Yacross four days, we’ll explore
ROOTED
IN CHRIST
Who are we when our identity is grounded in Jesus, not fear, shame, or instability?
GROWING
IN TRUTH + LOVE
How do we reject false choices and become people shaped by both conviction and compassion?
BUILT UP
AS ONE BODY
What does maturity look like when every member belongs and strengthens the whole?
WHO IS REVOICEFAQSAt its heart, Revoice is about encountering Jesus, growing in faith, and building friendships that last beyond the conference.
Our dream is to see all people who experience same-sex attraction (“sexual minorities” or “LGBTQ+/SSA” people) encounter Jesus, flourish in the church, and advance the mission of God through the power of their testimony—all while observing the historic Christian teaching on sexuality.
