This journal contains articles that navigate matters of faith, culture, and youth, particularly in Africa. We augur that the journal will trigger serious theological reflections on the theme, given that the LGBTQIA+ conversation is reshaping Africa’s cultural and religious landscape. As our youth grapple with questions of identity, faith, and belonging, this analysis offers rare perspectives from Scripture’s view on marriage to why our youth are joining the LGBTQIA+ movements. We should not shy away from hard truths: the Church teaches that marriage is a male and a female (Genesis 1:27), yet the Church and especially Pope Francis urge us to “walk with” those who feel excluded. African cultures see same-sex unions as destabilising lineage, but global media paints resistance as bigotry. Where does that leave us?
