CHICAGO (March 10, 2020) – The next Embrace webinar, “Born Again this Way: Coming Out, Coming to Faith, and What Comes Next,” will be a conversation with Rachel Gibson at noon (Central), Thursday, March 26.

The conversation will draw on Gibson’s new book, Born Again this Way, a memoir of her journey of coming out and coming to faith. The webinar will address topics such as, “Am I consigned to a life of loneliness? How do I navigate my friendships? Is there a greater purpose to all this?”

Gibson serves on the leadership team of theological development and culture with Cru. Her writing has appeared in Christianity Today and other venues. She regularly speaks at churches and on college campuses. She is completing her Master of Divinity degree at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.
