Outside the City Gate the second book by Dr. Selma, is a powerful account of what happened to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Christian community in Michigan during the mid-1990s and the early 21st century. The book describes what occurred after lesbian and gay church members were excluded from their home churches. After being expelled, excommunicated, tossed out and isolated from their early childhood places of worship many chose to remain true to their Christianity and their gender identities. . Despite the rumblings of rejection, in Michigan there are those in the LGBTQ Christian society that want to worship God. The question is whether God is with lesbian and gay Christians. Is God Spirit and power present with them in their churches and, in their personal lives. Does God move in the lesbian and gay community. This is the story of Whosoever Ministry, its founder and the struggle to find a safe place for Christian worship, free from spiritual abuse and condemnation.
