The Lepers Among Us (Paperback)

The Lepers Among Us sends a call to the Evangelical Church to stop treating believers who struggle with homosexual sin as lepers. The call is for the Church to be and become Family for all sinning Saints, including those who struggle with same-sex sins - to stop dispensing a hush-hush shame and begin mediating grace openly to all believers who struggle with gender identity issues. Like all of us, same-sex strugglers from time to time need professional counseling or a para-church group, but neither can possibly do the work of publicly and openly redeeming a life for a lifetime. Only the Church can do such a great work It is time for the Church to host parties for those who come home to Christ's Body, declaring their desire to be healed and their willingness to repent. Jim holds a B.A. and Masters of Divinity degree from Abilene Christian University (1964, 1967), a doctorate from the Graduate Theological University, Berkeley, California (1974), and a J.D. degree from SMU (1981).
