Thomas Jay Oord Responds to Charges and Pending Trial for Queer Affirmation

Thomas Jay Oord advocates for full acceptance of queer people. Consequently, Oord has been charged with teaching doctrines contrary to the Church of the Nazarene. And he’s charged with conduct unbecoming of a minister for his efforts to move the denomination to be fully affirming. If you’d like to help Oord and others who work for full queer inclusion, here are some things you can do:

1. Share this video with those who may find it encouraging.

2. Contribute to a new FundRazr campaign called “Spreading the News of Queer Affirmation.” https://fundrazr.com/42Ops0?ref=ab_1D…

3. Join the private Facebook group “Loving Nazarenes – Book Contributors and Friends.” Some in the group wrote essays for the book Why the Church of the Nazarene Should be Fully LGBTQ+ Affirming, but it’s for all current or former Nazarenes who are affirming. https://www.facebook.com/groups/718708639899658

4. Sign up for Oord’s newsletter to keep abreast of his charges and trial. Find a link on my website. thomasjayoord.com

5. To repeat the first: please share this video now. Loving Nazarenes Website: lovingnazarenes.com Personal Website: thomasjayoord.com Spreading the News of Queer Affirmation: https://fundrazr.com/42Ops0?ref=ab_1D…

  1. Thank you for your transparency, which I agree has been completely lacking from the COTN on these matters. Praying strength and encouragement for you and your family in this time.
