CHICAGO, IL (April 4, 2019) – The next Embrace webinar, “Is the Gospel Good News for Gay People?” will be a conversation with Laurie Krieg from noon to 1 p.m. (Central) on Thursday, April 10.

Krieg is the founder and the executive director of Hole in My Heart Ministries, whose vision is to help churches become a safe place that cultivates wholeness and holiness for people wrestling with issues related to sexuality.

Krieg, who experiences attractions toward her own gender, has wrestled with questions that have included whether the gospel can be good news for gay people if God does not affirm same-sex relationships.
