Churches around the world and society have benefited from the healing touch of homosexuals and bisexuals. For centuries gay, lesbian and bisexual people have filled roles that brought healing to the church. Gay and bisexual artists have painted and sculpted art that illustrated Biblical themes. Homosexual and bisexual musicians and composers have written and performed songs that have brought hope to weary hearts. Bisexual and gay pastors, priests, evangelists and religious educators have given inspiration and the assurance of God's love to the masses. No element in the church of Christ has not been touched in a positive way by the ministry of gay and bisexual people. And that continues to this day.

Gay and bisexual people bring healing to more than just the churches they serve. And that is why it is so important that gay and bisexual people heal and become healthy, so they can serve humanity. John McNeill, in the book Taking a Chance on God explains, "Since most lesbians and gay men do not have children of their own, they tend to redirect a vast reservoir of unselfish love into the human community. So great is the reservoir that the world could not bear its loss.

Despite their personal suffering, the loving presence of lesbian women and gay men is the oil that keeps the whole human machine running. If, somehow, gay people were to disappear from the scene, the whole human community would be in danger of being seriously dehumanized."
