John Pavlovitz is a Christian pasto

John Pavlovitz is a Christian pastor in North Carolina, but he is not what we have come to expect a Christian pastor in North Carolina to be. He's married and is dad to two small biblically-named kids, (left) Noah and Selah. That's the Pavlovitz picture perfect family portrait above.

John keeps a well-named blog called: Things That Need To Be Said, and last week, what he thought needed to be said caused quite a sensation in the lgbt community. John envisioned a furure when one of his children came as gay, and made four solemn promises about the way he would react in that circumstance. His four promises engendered thousands of responses.

"I was prepared for some people to applaud it, and for others to condemn it." John reflected on the response. "That's what happens whenever you put an opinion out there. I was fully prepared for the waves of both support and hostility that accompany any vantage point, especially on a controversial topic like this. What I was not prepared for in any way, were the literally hundreds and hundreds of people who have reached out to me personally to thank me for bringing some healing and hope to their families; for giving them a message they rarely get from Christian leaders."

Have a look at John's promises and see what all the buzz is about:

Sometimes I wonder if I’ll have gay children.

I’m not sure if other parents think about this, but I do; quite often.

Maybe it’s because I have many gay people in my family and circle of friends. It’s in my genes and in my tribe.
Maybe it’s because, as a pastor of students, I’ve seen and heard the horror stories of gay Christian kids, from both inside and outside of the closet, trying to be part of the Church.
Maybe it’s because, as a Christian, I interact with so many people who find homosexuality to be the most repulsive thing imaginable, and who make that abundantly clear at every conceivable opportunity.

For whatever reason, it’s something that I ponder frequently. As a pastor and a parent, I wanted to make some promises to you, and to my two kids right now…

1) If I have gay children, you’ll all know it.

My children won’t be our family’s best kept secret.

I won’t talk around them in conversations with others. I won’t speak in code or vague language. I won’t try to pull the wool over anyone’s eyes, and I won’t try to spare the feelings of those who may be older, or easily offended, or uncomfortable. Childhood is difficult enough, and most gay kids spend their entire existence being horribly, excruciatingly uncomfortable. I’m not going to put mine through any more unnecessary discomfort, just to make Thanksgiving dinner a little easier for a third cousin with misplaced anger issues.

If my children come out, we’ll be out as a family.

2) If I have gay children, I’ll pray for them.

I won’t pray for them to be made “normal”. I’ve lived long enough to know that if my children are gay, that is their normal.

I won’t pray that God will heal or change or fix them. I will pray for God to protect them; from the ignorance and hatred and violence that the world will throw at them, simply because of who they are. I’ll pray the He shields them from those who will despise them and wish them harm; who will curse them to Hell and put them through Hell, without ever knowing them at all. I’ll pray that they enjoy life; that they laugh, and dream, and feel, and forgive, and that they love God and humanity.

Above all, I’ll pray to God that my children won’t allow the unGodly treatment they might receive from some of His misguided children, to keep them from pursuing Him.

3) If I have gay children, I’ll love them.

I don’t mean some token, distant, tolerant love that stays at a safe arm’s length. It will be an extravagant, open-hearted, unapologetic, lavish, embarrassing-them-in-the-school cafeteria, kind of love.

I won’t love them despite their sexuality, and I won’t love them because of it. I will love them; simply because they’re sweet, and funny, and caring, and smart, and kind, and stubborn, and flawed, and original, and beautiful… and mine.

If my kids are gay, they may doubt a million things about themselves and about this world, but they’ll never doubt for a second whether or not their Daddy is over-the-moon crazy about them.

4) If I have gay children, most likely; I have gay children.

If my kids are going to be gay, well they pretty much already are.

God has already created them and wired them, and placed the seed of who they are within them. Psalm 139 says that He, “stitched them together in their mother’s womb”. The incredibly intricate stuff that makes them uniquely them; once-in-History souls, has already been uploaded into their very cells.

Because of that, there isn’t a coming deadline on their sexuality that their mother and I are working feverishly toward. I don’t believe there’s some magical expiration date approaching, by which time she and I need to somehow do, or say, or pray just the right things to get them to “turn straight”, or forever lose them to the other side.

They are today, simply a younger version of who they will be; and today they’re pretty darn great.


Many of you may be offended by all of this, I fully realize. I know this may be especially true if you are a religious person; one who finds the whole topic disgusting.

As you’ve been reading, you may have been rolling your eyes, or clicking the roof of your mouth, or drafting familiar Scriptures to send me, or praying for me to repent, or preparing to Unfriend me, or writing me off as a sinful, evil, Hell-bound heretic… but with as much gentleness and understanding as I can muster; I really couldn’t care less.

This isn’t about you. This is a whole lot bigger than you.

You’re not the one I waited on breathlessly for nine months.
You’re not the one I wept with joy for when you were born.
You’re not the one I bathed, and fed, and rocked to sleep through a hundred intimate, midnight snuggle sessions.

You’re not the one I taught to ride a bike, and whose scraped knee I kissed, and whose tiny, trembling hand I held, while getting stitches.
You’re not the one whose head I love to smell, and whose face lights-up when I come home at night, and whose laughter is like music to my weary soul.
You’re not the one who gives my days meaning and purpose, and who I adore more than I ever thought I could adore anything.

And you’re not the one who I’ll hopefully be with, when I take my last precious breaths on this planet; gratefully looking back on a lifetime of shared treasures, and resting in the knowledge that I loved you well.

If you’re a parent, I don’t know how you’ll respond if you find out your children are gay, but I pray you consider it.

One day, despite your perceptions of your kids or how you’ve parented, you may need to respond in real-time, to a frightened, frantic, hurting child; one whose sense of peace, and identity, and acceptance; whose very heart, may be placed in your hands in a way you never imagined… and you’ll need to respond.

If that day should ever come for me; if my children should ever come out to me, this is the Dad I hope I’ll be to them.



John admitted he was overwhelmed by the emotional responses his post drew:

Many parents, children, and siblings have confided in me – some for the first time anywhere – telling of the pain, and bullying, and shunning they're received from churches, pastors, and church members. They have shared with me their stories of exclusion, isolation, of unanswered prayers, of destructive therapies, of suicide attempts, and of being actively and passively driven from faith, by people of faith. This is why I do what I do; to let people who've been damaged or excluded, feel seen, known, and loved."

I am not a believer in gods or religions and I usually look at ministers the same way I look at con-men. But in this case, I truly hope John Pavlovitz keeps on doing what he does. Maybe Christian compassion will catch on.

John pavlovitz es un pastor cristiano en Carolina del Norte, pero no es lo que hemos llegado a esperar de un pastor cristiano en Carolina del Norte para ser.Está casado y es padre de dos pequeños Bíblicamente llamado hijos, (izquierda) Noah y Selah.Esa es la imagen perfecta de retrato de familia por encima pavlovitz.

John mantiene un así llamado blog llamado: cosas que hay que decir, y la semana pasada,Lo que él pensaba que debía ser dicho causó sensación en la comunidad LGBT.John imaginó un futuro cuando uno de sus hijos llegó como gay, y cuatro solemnes promesas acerca de la forma en que podría reaccionar en esa circunstancia.Sus cuatro promesas generó miles de respuestas.

"estaba preparado para algunas personas a aplaudir, y para otros para condenar". John se refleja en la respuesta."Eso es lo que pasa cuando pones una opinión ahí fuera.Yo estaba totalmente preparado para las olas de tanto apoyo y la hostilidad que acompañan a cualquier punto de vista, especialmente en un tema controvertido como éste.Lo que yo no estaba preparado para de alguna manera,Fueron literalmente cientos y cientos de personas que han llegado a mí personalmente a darme las gracias por traer algo de sanación y esperanza a sus familias; para darles un mensaje que rara vez conseguir de líderes cristianos ".

tienen un vistazo a John promesas y ver de qué se trata el rumor:

a veces me pregunto Si voy a tener hijos gay.

no estoy seguro de si otros padres piensan acerca de esto, pero lo hago;Muy a menudo.

quizás es porque tengo muchas personas gays en mi familia y círculo de amigos.Está en mis genes y en mi tribu.
quizás es porque, como un pastor de estudiantes, he visto y oído las historias de horror de Gay Christian niños, tanto dentro como fuera del armario, tratando de ser parte de la iglesia. - Tal vez es porque, como cristiano,Quiero interactuar con tanta gente que la homosexualidad sea lo más repulsivo imaginables, y que hacen que muy claro en cada posible oportunidad.

por la razón que sea, es algo que quiero reflexionar con frecuencia.Como pastor y padre, quería hacer algunas promesas a usted, y a mis dos hijos ahora...

1) si tengo hijos gays, todos sabrán.

Mis hijos no será nuestro secreto mejor guardado de la familia.

no hablaré por ellos en conversaciones con otros.No voy a hablar en código o lenguaje vago.No voy a engañar a nadie, y no voy a tratar de sobra los sentimientos de aquellos que pueden ser mayores, o fácilmente ofendido o incómodo.La infancia es bastante difícil,Y mas gay chicos pasar toda su existencia siendo terriblemente, terriblemente incómodo.No voy a poner el mío a través de más molestias innecesarias, solo para hacer la cena de Acción de gracias un poco mas facil para un primo tercero con misplaced Anger issues.

Si mis hijos ven, seremos como una familia.

2) si tengo hijos gay, rezaré por ellos.

No voy a rezar por ellos para ser "normal".He vivido lo suficiente para saber que si mis hijos son gay, que es su normal.

no voy a rezar para que Dios lo sane o cambiar o arreglar.Rezaré por Dios para protegerlos; desde la ignorancia y el odio y la violencia que el mundo va a tirar de ellos, simplemente porque de lo que son.Voy a rezar para que el que los escudos de los que te desprecian y desean hacerles daño; que se maldicen al infierno y ponerlos en un infierno, sin conocerlos a todos.Rezaré para que disfruten de la vida, que reir, y soñar y sentir, y perdonar, y que amar a Dios y a la humanidad.

por encima de todo,Yo le pido a Dios que mis hijos no permitir que los impíos tratamiento que podría recibir de algunos de sus descarriados hijos, para mantenerlos de perseguir él.

3) si tengo hijos gay, te encantan.

no me refiero a un token, distante, tolerante amor que permanece en una caja fuerte la longitud del brazo.Será un extravagante, Open - hearted, unapologetic, lujosa, vergonzoso en la cafetería de la escuela,Clase de amor.

no te amo a pesar de su sexualidad, y no me gustan porque de ella.Yo te amo, simplemente porque son dulces, y ridiculos, y cariñoso, inteligente y amable, y terco, y defectuoso, y original, y hermosa... Y la mía.

Si mis hijos son gays, ellos pueden dudar de un millón de cosas sobre sí mismos y sobre este mundo,Pero nunca voy a dudar por un segundo si o no su papá está en la luna loca por ellas.

4) si tengo hijos gay, mas probable; tengo hijos gay.

Si mis hijos van a ser gay, así que prácticamente ya están.

Dios ya ha creado y con ellos, y Se coloca la semilla de la que están dentro de ellos.Salmo 139 dice que él,"Cosido juntos en el vientre de su madre".La increiblemente intrincadas cosas que les hace especialmente ellos; una vez en la historia las almas, ya se ha subido en sus celdas.

por que, no hay un plazo sobre su sexualidad que su madre y yo estamos trabajando febrilmente hacia.No creo que haya alguna mágica fecha de caducidad acercándose,Por que el tiempo que ella y necesito de alguna manera hacer, o decir, o rezar solo las cosas correctas para llegar a "Hetero", o perder para siempre al otro lado.

son hoy, simplemente una versión más joven de lo que sera; y hoy están bastante genial.


muchos de ustedes pueden estar ofendido por todo esto, me dí cuenta.Sé que esto puede ser especialmente cierto si usted es una persona religiosa;Uno que encuentra el tema asqueroso.

como has estado leyendo, que pueden haber sido Rolling sus ojos, o clic en el techo de su boca, o la redacción de familiar escrituras para mandarme, o rezando por mí a arrepentirse, o preparar a Unfriend yo, o escribiendo a mí como un pecado, el mal, El infierno Bound hereje... Pero con tanta dulzura y comprensión como puedo reunir; realmente no podría cuidar menos.

Esto no es sobre ti.Esto es mucho más grande que tú.

no eres la esperé en sin aliento durante nueve meses. - No eres tú el que lloró de alegría cuando naciste. - Tú no eres la que baña y alimenta, y sacudido a dormir a través de un centenar de intima, de la medianoche snuggle sesiones.

no Eres quien me enseñó a andar en bicicleta, y cuya rodilla raspada que besé, y cuya pequeña,Mano temblorosa me sostuvo, mientras consiguiendo puntos.
no eres el uno cuya cabeza me encanta oler, y cuyo rostro se ilumina cuando llego a casa por la noche, y cuya risa es como música para mi alma cansada.
no eres el que da mi dias de significado y propósito, y que adoro más de lo que Jamás pensé que podía adorar algo.

y no eres el único que espero estar con,Cuando tomo mis últimos alientos en este planeta; agradece y mirando hacia atras en una vida compartida de tesoros, y descansando en el conocimiento que yo te amaba bueno.

Si eres un padre, no sé cómo vas a responder si descubres tus niños son gay, pero te ruego que consideren.

un día, a pesar de sus percepciones de tus hijos o como has parented, usted puede necesitar para responder en tiempo real,A un asustado, desesperado, dañando niño; uno cuyo sentido de la paz, y la identidad, y la aceptación, cuyo corazón, puede ser colocado en las manos de una manera que nunca imaginaste... Y tendrás que responder.

Si ese día llegara para mí; si mis hijos deben salir a yo, este es El padre espero estar a ellos.



John admitió que él estaba abrumado por las respuestas emocionales de su post Drew:

muchos padres, hijos y hermanos han confiado en mí, algunos por primera vez, diciendo las dolor, y la intimidación, y evitando son recibidas de las iglesias, pastores, y los miembros de la iglesia.Han compartido conmigo sus historias de exclusión, aislamiento, de nuestras oraciones, de tratamientos destructivos,De intentos de suicidio, y de ser activa y pasivamente impulsada desde la fe, por la gente de fe.Esta es la razón por la que hago lo que hago, para que la gente que ha sido dañada o excluidos, sentirse visto, conocido y amado. "

no soy un creyente en dioses o religiones y normalmente me mira a ministros de la misma manera que mira con los hombres.Pero en este caso, espero realmente John pavlovitz sigue haciendo lo que hace.Quizá la compasión cristiana se captura.
