The issue of homosexuality has become one of the most contentious
within the Christian church today. Urs Mattmann shows that the
spiritual and indeed practical aims of gay and lesbian people are
no different from those of others on the path of true spirituality
throughout the ages; in fact, their particular lifestyles and
experiences put them in a better position to work for good in the
world. The author explores a mystic spirituality and describes
numerous practical steps that gay men and women can take in order
to connect with their innate spiritual nature and express it in
their daily lives and relationships. He provides prayers,
meditations, rituals, exercises and other suggestions to foster
spiritual discovery. Addressing the unique gifts that gays and
lesbians have to offer to the rest of us - 'queer' gifts not only
for personal development but also for service in and to the world -
this book shows how a relevant and liberating spirituality can
enrich the lives of gay and lesbian people on a practical level.
Urs Mattmann is a social worker and a Psychosynthesis counsellor
who has studied theology and has a background in meditation. A
member of an ecumenical Christian order, he has initiated a number
of spiritual projects for gay and lesbian people, and also leads
retreats, workshops and seminars.
