Kathie Lee Gifford, well-known for her Christian faith, recently shared her perspective on loving the LGBTQIA+ community. In a podcast episode with Tomi Lahren, Gifford emphasized the importance of love above all else. She expressed her belief in following Jesus’ teachings of loving one’s neighbor and God first, regardless of their sexual orientation.
The conversation was sparked by Shia LaBeouf’s comments about being a Catholic and his views on homosexuality. When asked about the Bible’s stance on homosexuality, LaBeouf avoided the question. Lahren then asked Gifford for her opinion on Christians who support the LGBTQIA+ community. Gifford highlighted the importance of not hating those we claim to love, as love cannot coexist with hatred.
Gifford shared a message she received from God early in her career, reminding her to focus on loving people she disagrees with rather than judging them. She emphasized that judgment is God’s domain and encouraged those interested to look up what the scriptures say. Gifford, who recently released a novel titled “Nero and Paul: How the Gospel of Grace Defeated the Ruler of Rome,” has been vocal about her Christian faith even after leaving the “Today” show in 2019.
Through various platforms, including social media, Gifford continues to share her faith and message of love and acceptance. She hopes that her book will inspire readers to consider their place in God’s story and is grateful for the support on her journey. Gifford’s message of love and acceptance serves as a reminder that compassion and understanding should prevail in all aspects of life.
