Book
God and the gay Christian : the biblical case in support of same-sex relationships / Matthew Vines.
Unique in its affirmation of both an orthodox faith and sexual diversity, this book is likely to spark heated debate, sincere soul searching, even widespread cultural change. Not only is it a compelling interpretation of key biblical texts about same-sex relations, it is also the story of a young man navigating relationships with his family, his hometown church, and the Christian church at large as he expresses what it means to be a faithful, gay Christian.
