About Strength In Weakness

Strength in Weakness is a Christian organization that helps to bridge the gap between the Christian community and the LGBTQ community through awareness, education, and support.

Strength in Weakness Ministries assists Christians in hundreds of churches on every continent in the world. They teach evangelists, pastors, church leaders, and pastoral care workers. Through their workshops, they help Christians to effectively love and counsel other Christians who are same-gender attracted or transgender. They also help parents, spouses, and siblings dealing with this challenge in their family relationships. They also help with reaching out to gay neighbors, friends, and co-workers for Christ.

Davion has been a Christian since 2010 and has battled with unwanted same-sex attractions for as long as he can remember. He serves on staff in the Columbia Church of Christ (MO) as a Youth and Family Minister. God has blessed him with an amazing wife and three beautiful children.
