Synopsis: Though many think of the Bible as monolithic, that is, of
a single point of view, the Bible is rather a compendium of
viewpoints on a variety of issues. To enter the Bible is like
entering any community: there may be some common beliefs, but there
is also disagreement. The dialogue of the Bible therefore invites
rather than inhibits further conversation. Lesbians and gay men
know all too well the experience of having to leave families,
friends, hometowns, and even their faith traditions to be blessed
as they are. Nevertheless, many still struggle to maintain an
authentic faith that also affirms and recognizes their right to
joyously celebrate their biblical heritage. Chris Glaser liberates
the Bible from those who would hold it hostage to an anti-gay
agenda. In this inspiring and moving collection of 365 daily
meditations, the Bible's good news "comes out" to meet us all with
love, justice, meaning, and hope. Author Biography: Chris Glaser is
the author of nine books on the spiritual life, including
Reformation of the Heart and Communion of Life: Meditations for the
New Millennium. A graduate of Yale Divinity School, he travels
widely from his home in Atlanta, Georgia, as a speaker and as a
leader of workshops and retreats.
