The Community Activist

Who We Are

"The Community Activist" with Rev. Jim Merritt is a talk show based on nearly twenty-five years of personal activism. Rev. Jim and his friends discuss far reaching issues in the GLBT community and beyond. We focus on many areas of interest which include Marriage, Civil Unions, Adoption, Equal Rights, Children's Issues, HIV and other health related issues, Religion and Sexuality, and many others related to the basic culture of the GLBT Community.

So how does all of this fit together? Living as an out GLBT person is a political statement. Many of us say we don't want to be involved in politics, but we really cannot avoid it because our very existence is political. So much of the focus of the radical right is on minimizing us, discriminating against us in the area of civil rights, excluding from rights like adoption and marriage. Our work is in support of equality for all people, not just queer people, but all people.

Sexuality and Spirituality are also intertwined in ways that prevent them from being separated from each other. We celebrate the sexual nature with which God gifted us. We are out about sex as much as we are about our sexual orientation. We're not afraid or ashamed to talk about it, celebrate it, and live it. God created us as sexual beings and we celebrate that aspect along with everything about God's creation.

So, come join us. Listen to our stories, join us in activism, join us in our deep spiritual experience as we celebrate all aspects of this life. Let's live it in a way that will lead God to say, "it is very good."
