If you ask LGBTQ+ people why most of them have little involvement with Christians and the church, many would share heartbreaking stories of hurt and rejection, and needing to get as far away from that as possible. Redeeming this narrative is at the heart of all we do.
Making Things Right is helping reform the Christian response and responsibility to LGBTQ+ people via advocacy, events, thought-leadership, resources, and synergistic partnerships. You can learn more about our history, our work and our team at the About MTR page.
Since our launch in November 2021, we’ve had increasing reach through various outlets. Here are some of our stats through year-end 2024:
What’s encouraging about these numbers is they help validate that our message is resonating with Christians of all beliefs. Despite today’s conflicting rhetoric, we observe a growing number of Christians seeking a more compassionate, welcoming posture with their LGBTQ+ neighbors.
In October 2024, Making Things Right became a 501(c)(3) organization to help further our work. Your tax-deductible contributions will support our 2025 initiatives that we hope to expand:
Expanding our Managing Director role will enable Kelly to bring our initiatives to life, and to develop key synergies across the country, as she and Brian attend and present at churches and conferences to advance the message of a reformed Christian response to LGBTQ+ people.
Following our impact at Atlanta Pride that went viral, Kelly will be traveling across the U.S. to mobilize and equip MTR friends to have an intentional, healing presence at their local Pride events. Long Beach CA, Denver CO, and La Center WA are on the books, with more cities to be added.
On the heels of our popular 2024 Season, we’re planning another online event series where Brian will interview key organizations, thought-leaders, and churches leading the way to a more compassionate, inclusive Christian posture toward LGBTQ+ people.
Following our Season One seven episodes with 25,000+ downloads, our 2025 Event Season will be reproduced into our next round of podcasts for greater reach, distributing to new and existing channels via grass-roots and advertising partnerships.
Your support is vital and appreciated! Thank you!
