A compelling reinterpretation of key Bible texts related to sexual
orientation that has win raves and rants both inside and outside
the church. Millions of conservative Christians want to live in
solidarity with the LGBT community but feel stymied by traditional
understandings of a mere handful of biblical texts. Now comes
Matthew Vines, a Harvard student who spent years on a personal
quest to unearth scholarly work long acknowledged by liberal
theologians, but almost entirely lost to conservatives. His book
stands nearly alone in that it affirms the key tenets of a
gospel-centred, orthodox hermenuetic while presenting a clear and
compelling case for embracing sexual diversity. His audience is a
new generation of Evangelicals--both gay and straight--who feel
caught in and repulsed by an often mean-spirited debate. They long
for a charitable yet biblically sound message on this topic that is
not at odds with the Jesus of the gospels. The Bible and the Gay
Christian delivers the manifesto they're looking for. And the
author's goal is not merely to change the conversation but to
create change in churches worldwide.
