Melinda Patrick

As Director of Parent Support for His Wonderful Works since 2013, host of the award-winning podcast, The Bridge Between Us: Loving Your LGBTQ-identified Child Without Compromising Truth, and author of The Daring Rescue: Joining Jesus Christ In His Pursuit Of Your LGBTQ-Identified Child's Heart, Melinda Patrick has been able to minister to many families with children and loved ones who have embraced an LGBTQ identity. Having a daughter involved in the LGBTQ community for over 12 years, Melinda knows what it is like to grieve the choices our loved ones have made and understands the helplessness when things aren't as we had hoped. Through her healing journey and the healing relationship with her daughter, she is passionate about emboldening and equipping parents to join Jesus Christ where He is at work in their life and family. Along with meeting families one-on-one, Melinda has had the opportunity to speak life into the lives of many families through radio, TV, podcast interviews, and guest blogging. She is an international speaker who speaks at family conferences, church ministry events, and parent groups to equip families and the church to love well while not compromising Truth.
