Queer-spirit image archive planned

An ever-expanding online gallery of progressive spiritual images is in the works at JesusInLove.org. We’ve taken the first step by starting the Jesus in Love image archive at Flickr.com. We are working now to integrate it into the JesusInLove.org website. The Jesus in Love Image Archive will present a wide variety of art and images that use a spiritual perspective to examine issues such as gender justice, racial justice, peace and environmental protection. Many of the first images in the collection are gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) Christian images from my book Art That Dares: Gay Jesus, Woman Christ, and More. Here are some samples of how images can be displayed: 1) As a slideshow (See left on the Jesus in Love Blog) 2) As a Flickr “dynamic flash badge” (Scroll down to the very bottom of the Jesus in Love Blog).

Vision statement

Jesus in Love supports lesbian, gay, bi, trans and queer (LGBTQ) spirituality, with an emphasis on art and literature. It promotes artistic and religious freedom and teaches love for all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. It is based on these beliefs: God loves all people, including sexual minorities. The creative process is sacred. The queer visions, especially the gay Jesus and LGBT saints, will free people to experience the divine in new ways and lead to a more just world. Jesus in Love was founded by lesbian Christian author Kittredge Cherry as her personal project. It is her gift to the world. Many thanks to everyone who supports her vision.
