No issue more polarizes American Protestants today than the
church s stance on homosexuality. In recent years, a number of
denominations have engaged in prolonged and divisive debates on the
subject, and it appears that these debates will continue to occupy
their attention. The contributors to this volume call for the
formation of a loyal opposition that is serious in its commitment
to the difficult process of reconciliation and forgiveness.
Faithfulness to the gospel, they remind readers, requires nothing
less than that Christians will be committed to the full inclusion
of all persons in the body of Christ not least of all those who
disagree theologically and ethically.
The book offers readers a multifaceted argument that the gospel
requires a commitment to the full inclusion of all persons in the
body of Christ. It focuses on how members of mainline denominations
can respond to official denominational positions with which they
disagree. Readers are offered an alternative response besides
staying in the denomination and remaining silent or leaving the
denomination because one disagrees with its official position on
this issue.
Contributors include: J. Philip Wogaman, Roy Sano, Stanley
Hauerwas, Jeanne Audrey Powers, Victor Paul Furnish, Dale Dunlap,
Gil Caldwell, and Joretta Marshall. Foreword by Leontine Kelly.
