Gay marriage has become the most important domestic social issue
facing twenty-first-century Americans -- particularly Americans of
faith. Most Christians are pro-marriage and hold traditional family
values, but should they endorse extending marriage rights to gays
and lesbians? If Jesus enjoined us to love our neighbors as
ourselves, and the homosexual is our neighbor, does that mean we
should accept and bless gay marriages? These and other, related
questions are tearing many faith-based communities apart.
Across the country, states have voted, courts have debated, and
churches have divided over the legitimacy of same-sex marriage.
Amid the uproar one perspective is decidedly missing: that of
thoughtful, pro-marriage Christians who, informed by their faith,
are struggling to make sense of this issue. What God Has Joined
Together? is an effort to bridge the divide between
marriage-supporting and gay-supporting people of faith by showing
why both sides have important things to say and showing how both
sides can coexist. Drawing on scientific research as well as on the
Bible, the authors explain that marriage is emotionally,
physically, financially, and spiritually beneficial for everyone,
not just heterosexuals.
They debunk myths about sexual orientation, assess claims of
sexual reorientation, and explore what the Bible does and does not
say about same-sex relationships. The book ends with a persuasive
case for gay marriage and outlines how this can be a win-win
solution for all.
