Synopsis: What does the Bible say about homosexuality?Homosexuality, and what the Bible says about it, is a predominant subject in the world we live in. How do Christians lovingly share what God's Word says about homosexuality with their friends and family members? And if you're a Christian who struggles with homosexuality, what does God want you to know?This book is both a topical discussion on the difficult conversation about what the Bible says about homosexuality and the first-person testimony of one man's real-life exit from a gay lifestyle back to Jesus Christ.In this book, you will find very practical advice for overcoming temptation, both from someone who has personally lived through the struggle and from a pastor with a deep love for God's Word and people. But the authors want you to know that you won't find a quick and easy cure-all, silver bullet, or magic formula to "cure" homosexuality in this book. There is no cure for homosexuality other than the one cure for all sin: God-given faith in the forgiveness of Jesus.Authors Scott Barefoot and Pastor Richard Starr avoid judgment and stereotypes by delicately balancing biblical law and gospel for an encouraging, hope-filled message to all believers who struggle with homosexuality—and any temptation. If you, or someone you love, are seeking to turn away from a life of homosexuality and turn your life back to Jesus, this book is for you.
