the Bible actually says--and doesn't say--about same-sex relationships
"This book is a game changer. Every page is brought to life by the author's clear love for Scripture and deep, persistent faith. Matthew Vines emerges as one of my generation's most important Christian leaders."--Rachel Held Evans As a young Christian man, Matthew Vines harbored the same basic hopes of many young people: to one day share his life with someone, to build a family of his own, to give and receive love. But when Vines realized he was gay, those hopes were called into question. The Bible, he'd been taught, condemned gay relationships. Feeling the tension between his understanding of the Bible and the reality of his same-sex orientation, Vines devoted years to intensive research into what the Bible says about homosexuality. He asked questions such as: - What was the real sin of Sodom?
- What did Paul have in mind when he wrote about same-sex relations?
- Is mandatory celibacy biblical?
- Can same-sex marriage fulfill Scripture's vision for marriage? Accessibly written and carefully argued, God and the Gay Christian shows readers how affirming same-sex relationships can go hand in hand with maintaining moral boundaries and upholding an orthodox Christian faith.
