California Pastor Raised by 3 Gay Parents Details How the Bible Changed His Life, View on Sexuality

September 3, 2021 by Staff

(Christian Headlines) A California author and pastor, who was raised by three gay parents, is detailing how the Bible transformed his life despite previous attempts to disprove Christianity.

Caleb Kaltenbach, who serves as Research Pastor at Shepherd Church in Los Angeles, found himself saying, “I never want to be a Christian,” after experiencing hatred and anger from Christians who opposed homosexuality.

“My parents divorced when I was two, and they both went into same-sex relationships,” he told host Billy Hallowell on a recent episode of the “Edifi With Billy Hallowell” podcast.

Kaltenbach, the founder of The Messy Grace Group, shared that following the divorce, he and his parents (2 lesbians and a gay man) became pro-LGBT activists where he encountered Christians who “hated gay people.”
