The United Methodist Church made headlines when it voted to keep a ban on same-sex marriage and LGBTQ clergy. Yet, it’s one of many denominations that claims to be LGBTQ friendly at the same time as having discriminatory policies. I sit down with a woman who is an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ. She has experienced and witnessed heterosexism throughout her time in the church. Most recently, she was fired for being a lesbian– despite fully disclosing this fact before being hired. This interview is a part of our broader series on homophobia and heterosexism.
