Crystal Cheatham, the creator of "Our Bible App", says In a YouTube video, she was told by ministers at her church that her faith was in conflict with being a lesbian.
Explaining how she came to create the app, she said: "I couldn't find any devotional that represented me."
The Our Bible app - which was funded by thousands of dollars from online donations - offers users at least 20 Bibles and over 300 devotional readings, articles, podcasts, and mediation exercises designed for LGBT Christians.
Our Bible App will also include translations that refer to God in gender neutral terms.
Cheatham is requesting for $20,000 in order to launch the app that will be free to download later this month.
