FAQS
-
First-timers should make sure they come to our first-timers meeting on Wednesday at 6 PM – you’ll get lots of helpful tips there and an opportunity to meet some new people.
We’re also creating affinity group meetings during our lunch-times for people to connect, including a “new connections” group to help people meet each other!
-
As a conference with hundreds of participants, we cannot guarantee or control the actions of others; that said, we have privacy policies in place which all attendees agree to in purchasing a ticket.
If you have concerns about your privacy, make sure to wear a white privacy lanyard, and you won’t be photographed or videoed by the Revoice team or attendees.
-
Our programming is made with adults in mind, and in the interest of safety, minors may not attend alone. That said, each year we have parents who choose to bring their teens and have a great time!
Stage content is not graphic in any way, but discussions of sex and sexuality are frank, and parents should consider what is best for their child.
-
Absolutely, please come and engage! Each year, about 25% of our annual attendance is made up of straight friends who love us, and many pastors tell us our conference is their best example of Biblical community.
That said, we ask that you recognize who this space is primarily for - LGBTQ+ Christians who follow a traditional sexual ethic. We ask that you don’t ask our guests uninvited questions, and don’t try to use our community space as a “think tank.”
Our speakers welcome your questions and engagement - so go ahead and learn from the speakers, while letting the rest of our community enjoy this space of safety and intimacy.
-
Each year, we have guests who aren’t sure about their theology. It’s important to remember that Revoice hosts a diverse community from a variety of faith traditions and beliefs. If you are still discerning your theology, if you have doubts, or even if you openly disagree but want to see what Revoice is all about – you’re welcome to join us.
That said, guests will be expected to honor the dignity and beliefs of others, and recognize that Revoice teaching will reflect our commitment to a particular theology and ethic.
-
Each year, Revoice is hosted by a church that offers us their hospitality and commits to creating a safe, encouraging environment with us. Often, host churches offer us their space at little to no cost, charging only for personnel, and we receive this generosity as a show of love to the LGBTQ+ community.
We love and are grateful for our host churches. That said, host churches do not impact or dictate Revoices’ values and beliefs, and vice versa.
Our presence at a specific church does not indicate that this church agrees with everything said by a conference speaker (as an ecumenical conference, we have a wide variety of disagreement about things outside of sexual ethics), and our presence also does not indicate that Revoice affirms or agrees with every bit of teaching done by the church.
