Is God Anti-Gay?: And Other Questions About Homosexuality, the Bible and Same Sex Attraction (Questions Christian Ask Series)
Sam AllberryPaperback 2013-07-01
It's the hot topic of the moment. Christians, the church and the Bible seem to be out of step with modern attitudes towards homosexuality. And there is growing hostility towards those who hold a different view. So is God homophobic? And what do we say, and how do we relate to to both Christians and non Christians who experience same-sex attraction.
In this short, simple book, Sam Allberry wants to help confused Christians understand what God has said about these questions in the scriptures, and offers a positive and liberating way forward through the debate.
Empathetic and wise, learned and clear, hopeful and kind--this book by Sam Allberry is on a topic that can be very challenging. It would be helpful for just about anyone to read.
- Mark Dever, Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church
Truly marvellous. Sam writes from the perspective of a pastor who himself struggles with same sex attraction. This makes the book more compassionate and compelling. Sam's humanity shines through every page; his understanding of weakness undergirds the whole; his compassion for those facing that which he himself faces each day is deeply moving. This book would make an excellent resource for pastors and elders to keep on hand, given that this is an issue which is set to become more, not less, significant and contentious.
