The church has had a hard time communicating anything balanced in the way of sexuality, specifically about homosexuality. In a day where sexuality is expressed so freely and openly, whatever preference, it is a need for us to take a balanced educated look into sexuality from a scientific perspective and from the God of creation perspective. This book is a in-depth dialogue about the different arguments and questions about sexuality.
Excerpt
I have had close friends come to me and share that they are into sex with men. Though these situations sort of took me by surprise, I grew to know these talented brothers, and I couldn’t deny the GOD experiences I had with them. I’ve been pastoring for almost eight years at the time of writing this
book. In that time, I’ve experienced several men who have been in my congregation who shared with me their struggle with homosexuality and the guilt and shame they feel because of it. These men have been awesome worshipers, songwriters, and seemingly lovers of GOD, but struggling with what we in the church consider “the forbidden sin.” I’ve heard the cruel jokes and derogatory slander against men and boys who look like they are gay or act “gay.” I have felt this same prejudice toward men and women, who struggle in this area, and have said some very cruel things to individuals in my lifetime. After being in a job that put me in the position to get to know people in the LGBT lifestyle, and knowing my friends
and church members, something sparked in
my spirit. I do not feel that GOD allowed me to experience the things I’ve experienced without cause. I’ve not been attracted sexually to a man, but I do love the people of GOD. I asked GOD to
explain to me what this lifestyle is all about and what his thought was about it.
