Synopsis

Biblical Guidance for Ministering God’s Love in a Sexually Diverse Culture In a time when sexual norms are changing rapidly, how can a local church be a place of grace—a loving community for all kinds of people—where everyone can flourish and disagreements are overcome in a Christlike spirit while at the same time stay true to biblical standards? In a way that appeals to pastors and lay leaders alike, Bruce offers a biblical theology of sexuality and provides practical wisdom for how a church can approach ministering to, and alongside, people who identify their sexuality in diverse ways: LGBTQ+. Here is a church-tested program full of wise pastoral insights to help church leaders think through day-to-day decisions, such as how to handle baby dedications, small groups, who can serve, membership, baptism, retreats, the Lord’s Supper, weddings, funerals, teaching, hiring, and caring for those caught in sin. If you are a leader who is facing any of these challenging issues and decisions, then this practical, grace-filled audiobook is for you.Discussion questions available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Goodreads review by Tiff on July 15, 2024

It was an interesting book to read. One minute I agreed with the author and then I was not on board with what he was saying, it was like he was on the fence about what the word of God was conveying for the LGBTQ community and how God would see them as it pertains to leadership roles within the churc......more

Goodreads review by Jonathan on August 23, 2019

This is an outstanding balanced and sensitive book. I would recommend it as a must read for every pastor at every level. The author does not seek to prescribe or instruct but rather to give the reader fuel to think through issues with informed sensitivity. There are few issues that present the churc......more

Goodreads review by Jamar on August 25, 2023

Excellent read. Bruce Miller begs the question, what are we doing to bring families in that have concerns with sexual topics. How are we growing the body of Christ with people and for people that don’t share a brand of logic of what a Christian looks like. I like that he talks about not identifying......more
