Thank you all  :) I never saw him, my mom said he should come when my sister was also home since he wanted to speak with both of us.

You're all right, I'm not going to hell for being trans and God loves all of us regardless if we're trans or not

I'm happy you have come to discern the truth. There is nothing wrong with being trans, its just another gift from God. Before transitioning we carry our cross, but once we become our true selves we share the resurrection with Christ. All humans, especially Christians, we are called to be the rainbow people of God. To accept diversity regardless of what that may be. To love our neighbor as Jesus loved us.


You must be true to yourself, in order to be true to God! - Jaz

Melanie,
        All you have to do to understand how God feels about trans folks is to read to accounts of how Jesus (God's personification on earth) treated everyone, the good the bad and the ugly, then you can relax your concerns about hell. I am a Christian and though I don't attend church at this time I still believe and acknowledge God in my daily life. Unfortunately in Christian circles there are some who don't have this same understanding about the heart of God as depicted by Christ and they are busy throwing stones at practically everyone they don't agree with, but we can't let their bad attitude affect us and who we are. You're always free to pm or email me if you need to discuss this and other things more fully dear. ~Shan~

It sounds as though he just intends on a routine house call if he's not pressing. Some like to do that as they find it very hard to know people just from Sunday contact.

If you don't mind me asking, what denomination do your family and you belong to?  It'd be useful to know for later.
When I was young all pastors made routine house calls to their members. It was the accepted practice and most people welcomed it. Our society is too impersonal today.
