Conversations That Matter


Questions surrounding LGBTQ concerns can be difficult, especially when they involve people we know and love. How we listen and how we love matters just as much as what we believe.


Join Pastor Dave Ellsworth of Aim for the Heart Ministries for Conversations That Matter as we explore the biblical teachings surrounding LGBTQ concerns and what it looks like to live out our convictions with compassion, humility, and the heart of Christ.

Aim For The Heart

Led by Pastor Dave Ellsworth, Aim For The Heart exists to build bridges between LGBTQ+ individuals, their families, and the church. We seek to foster a community where all people can experience the transformative love of God, reconciliation, and deep spiritual growth.


Core Foundation:


  • Imago Dei: We believe every person is wonderfully made in the image of God (Genesis 1:27) and is deserving of dignity, respect, and belonging.
  • Radical Hospitality: Modeled after Jesus, our ministry strives to welcome all people, actively listening to their stories and journeying with them through pain and celebration.
  • Christ-Centered Identity: We encourage every believer to find their primary identity in Christ—as a beloved son or daughter of God.


What We Offer:


  • Confidential Pastoral Care: One-on-one, judgment-free conversations with leaders who care about your well-being.
  • Practical Needs: Pastoral coaching that can aid in navigating complex emotions, identity, and faith.
  • Support Groups: Safe spaces to process life, faith, and relationships with others who share similar experiences.
  • Community Life: Opportunities to serve, socialize, and build genuine friendships.
  • Safe-Space Fellowship: Opportunities to nurture relationships, celebrate community, and build networks of support.
  • Support for Families: Dedicated care, education, and resources for parents, grandparents, and loved ones of LGBTQ+ individuals.
  • Spiritual Formation: Tools, studies, and theological resources to help ground your faith in God's unconditional love.
