Gay Marriage, Faith, and Friendship

I can speak personally and I think as a generality that Christians often act in fear when something challenges their faith. In 2012 Americans saw the knee jerk reaction of Christians and the Gay-Lesbian community when Chick-fil-a CEO and Christian, Dan Cathy, publicly proclaimed his stance against gay marriage. Reactions from both sides where not pretty. On the belief side of things both sides seem pretty opinionated, but as things unraveled the real human connection made between Dan Cathy and the LGBT was beautiful. This tells the brief story of the friendship that has developed between Dan Cathy and Shane Windmeyer. My hope is that both Christians and non-Christians,whether gay or straight can learn from this. This is how the Kingdom of God is progressed. This is how relationships are reconciled.
