Christian Nudists
We gather together for fellowship. To share about our relationship with God To tell of how we work out being a Christian and a nudist in daily living. We see nudism as a positive expression of our God given sexual nature.

Do any of your church friends know you are a nudist?

We are very active in our chruch and several of our church friends know we are nudists and go to Nude beaches.
None of them have ever been bothered by it, and once the assistant pastor found out we had been to his favorite beach, at the Canveral national Seashore. He asked me if we went to the nude beach, all I could do was give him a big grinn and he gave me a big grinn too.
Once at a church dinner wife was comparing tans with a few of the other ladies, when she, to get one up on them, told them she had an allover tan cause she had a private pool. To my surprise no one was even shocked. :-)
We are so lucky to have such a great church.
What's your church like?

You are fortunate in your church.
I think that your church friends don't need to know about your nudist activities. I play it safe and NOT tell my church friends about it. To most church people, nudity equals sex, hence thou shalt not commit adultery. Granted, they have a misunderstanding about what nudism is all about. That misinformation is NOT Biblical. This prejudice exists even in the liberal mainline denominations.
I've told a few people there who volunteer with me. Periodically, I may hear a few jokes about having nude gatherings. But overall they are fine with it. They feel that they could never do it even privately at home.

Only 2 friends know that I'm a nudist. I'm very private in my personal life because of being a young Pastor. To each his own, but I value my privacy
I would continue to be private about it. If at sometime you lose favor with a congregation, they could use that against you and argue the prejudiced view that nudity equals sex, along with thou shalt not commit adultery. As I entered in a previous posting on this thread, nobody needs to know about your nudism. The prejudice even exists in the liberal mainline Protestant denominations (I am United Methodist, where the bishop appoints pastors).
I am new to the area where I currently live and just getting to know fellow members of my church, so have not discussed hardly any of my life with anyone - just as they don't know how many children I have. The people I live with, hence attend church with, are Christian and they know as all my friends know. I am quite vocal about my love of nudism and not a bit shy or ashamed of sharing and discussing such. But, I don't just shake someone's hand for the first time and say, "I like to be naked" under any circumstance.
Our church meets in a nudist club and so everyoneknows !!
I would love to attend a nude church that centered on Biblical foundations for teaching and preaching purposes to edify the body of Christ. If I can't find one I would even be interested in helping found one.
Check out the True Nudist group CNC (Christian Nudist Convocation)https://www.truenudists.com/groups/1315/. CNC is a non-landed club that is affiliated with AANR. During each of the last several summers, they have 3 weekend gatherings at various nudist resorts nationwide. On Saturday, they have Christian support sessions with spirit filled discussions. On Sunday morning, they have a typical worship service with a sermon and communion. They also get in some swim time and hot tub time.
