The next two weeks my mind will be\u00a0awash in all things Pride as we prepare to do down south what folks around the country did back in June.<\/p>\n

Claim\u00a0how far we come. Create opportunities for more people\u00a0to know they are beautiful and beloved.\u00a0Celebrate who we are.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, October 5 I have the honor of speaking at Tennessee Valley Pride<\/a> in Chattanooga. The following weekend is the\u00a0 44th Atlanta Pride Festival<\/a>, the largest Pride event in the southeast and the largest event in the country to coincide with National Coming Out Day.<\/p>\n

Lift up your hearts!<\/p>\n

We lift them up to the Lord!<\/p>\n
