About Us
Two:23 is an inclusive community of believers discovering what it means to be God’s people and worship as our true selves.
Our mission
Two:23 builds connection between Christians from diverse traditions, and promotes the elimination of discrimination on the grounds of gender identity or sexual orientation.
Our vision
Our name, Two:23, reflects our vision inspired by a verse from the prophet, Hosea, who uses his own life as an allegory for God’s promise of love to the outsider, the excluded, the person considered a 'nobody'.
I will say to those called ‘Not my people’, ‘You are my people’; and they will say ‘You are my God’.
Hosea 2:23
Our history
Two:23 was established in 2012, emerging from a variety of groups and individuals with a common experience of faith and sexuality, especially the LGBTQ+ affirming ministry Courage by Jeremy Marks.
