1 Samuel 18:1-4

Description
After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan became one in spirit with David, and he loved him as himself. From that day Saul kept David with him and did not let him return home to his family. And Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as himself. Jonathan took off the robe he was wearing and gave it to David, along with his tunic, and even his sword, his bow and his belt. In our fourth episode, we discuss the story of David and Jonathan, and ways that queers can reclaim their Christianity. We also hear personal stories from queer Christians, describing how they returned to their faith after experiences of exclusion and prejudice. Thank you to our guests this week. Our song this week is Great is Thy Faithfulness, performed by Ellie & Leesa. As always, you can find us on Twitter and Instagram at @sweetbitterpod.
