This book is the result of one pastor/parent's years-long journey of discovery. It is especially intended for parents, pastors, and others who are motivated to take a comprehensive look at the biblically-based perspectives of those who hold affirming views and those who hold non-affirming views. While there are many books that present a non-affirming view, and many books that present an affirming view, this book uniquely presents both views in a conversational format, modelling a non-confrontational, non-anxious dialogue and treating both views with respect and objectivity. For those who want to learn in the context of community, it lends itself to being used for small group discussions. It is offered in the hopes of facilitating conversation and promoting understanding, with the ultimate goal of healing division within families, churches, and individual hearts and lives.
