“Much as it might like to, the church can no
longer evade questions about homosexuality
and same-sex marriage, for society is, with
increasing stridency, forcing Christians to
confront them."
-From the Preface, by Nicholas Miller
Some religious thought leaders, taking their cue from
popular culture and current politics, are trying to make a
case for biblical support of the practice of homosexuality
and same-sex marriage. Their efforts create serious con
fusion while challenging the church’s ability to sensitive
ly address one of the most explosive spiritual and public
policy issues of our time.
In this volume, Christian scholars offer a deep resource
of material—biblical, clinical, and legal—to untangle
the complex web of questions surrounding this contested
topic. The authors first provide a frank and rigorous ex
plication of the Bible’s clear teaching. Then they lay out
the implications for counseling and for the religious liber
ty of the church and its members. And through it all, they
make an impassioned call for love and care for those who
are being misled into a walk down a dangerous path. The
book includes moving testimonies from several Christians
who have lived and struggled with homosexuality in their
personal lives and can praise God for empowering them
to live for Him.
In the threatening environment facing the church and
society today, every Christian administrator, attorney,
teacher, counselor, pastor, and congregational leader
should read this book.
