About this deal

As well as exploring Bible passages that talk directly about homosexuality, this new edition frames the whole discussion with Jesus' general teaching on sex and marriage, as well as what Jesus teaches about finding ultimate satisfaction and happiness.

However, Allberry’s warning reminds us that, particularly when talking to gay people, it’s often best to assume they already know what we believe about their sexuality. Because the Gospel should never be separated from what God does, and talk of sin should never be separated from talk of sin. A variety of surveys of evangelicals, however, reveal that the large majority do not practice what they say they believe. The existential heart-cry deep within the soul of these individuals is, “What kind of a man (or woman) am I if I experience same-sex attraction? There is no interview to ace, there is just a Doctor who is waiting for you to let him care for you.With sensitivity and clarity, courage and wisdom, Sam Allberry walks us through a host of challenging questions and provides compelling and gracious answers. Each section is answered in a few paragraphs, but the depth of the answer given is perfectly adequate for the posed question. Marriage is a sacred covenant that is representative of the church as the bride of Christ, but marriage is not an ultimate thing either and we should not idolize it. In short, there is gross hypocrisy in insisting that gays must follow a restriction that most Christians don't. Anyone looking for that kind of thing would do well to read Jackie Hill Perry’s Gay Girl, Good God, as one such example.

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

There were some parts where I was mad and felt the generational difference between us but overall he came across well and seemed like a nice dude. The new material makes this book more accessible to non-Christians, but because the book is so very brief, people who already fundamentally disagree with the author are unlikely to get much out of it.Gay, “Leviticus does not shape the boundaries of compassion; compassion shapes the boundaries of Leviticus. He challenges the current culture narrative and shows that the gospel is good news for everyone, whatever their sexual orientation. This was written before the more recent events and theological debates took place which made more people aware of how to parse some of the finer theological details addressed in this book.
