The Rainbow and the Cross: Help for Pastors: Church Practice Concerning Biblical Sexuality
By Elijah Paske
Christian leaders have been caught off guard as culture is accelerating an acceptance for all things LGBT+. To offer both truth and grace toward people who experience same-sex attraction is becoming confusing and difficult. There is little help for pastors about how to respond to many new and complex pastoral issues. Questions arise when a church needs to find what can be the best way to love a lesbian couple who has come with their children? Or how may a pastor respond when a leader in the church announces that they are gay, and God made them that way? This book will open understanding about how same-sex attracted people and their families experience church. Pastors from several denominational backgrounds provide knowledge from their involvements with such issues, while same-sex attracted congregants tell of their experiences and voice their powerful ideas. |

The Truth about Homosexuality: The Cry of the Faithful
By John Harvey
This book addresses the complex moral and pastoral questions involved in both homosexual orientation and activity, including an analysis of lifestyles in accord with the Christian Gospel and those running counter to Christian moral teaching. Fr. Harvey, a pioneer in the pastoral care of homosexual persons through his organization Courage, gives a comprehensive view of the issues involved in homosexuality. Harvey shows that many reputable therapists have provided empirical evidence that people with a homosexual condition can have a change of orientation to the heterosexual condition.

Craving for Love
By Briar Whithead
Today's church is filled with self-gratifying obsessive behaviors. We ask too much of our relationships, expecting them to deliver meaning, which only Jesus can give. We set up food, work, people, and money as replacements for the one and only true God. And then we are disillusioned when our needs aren't met. In this book, born from the author's own experiences as a relationship addict, Briar Whitehead examines the whys of addiction, the affects of addiction, the steps toward healing, and the role of the church in it all. The author asserts that homsexuality is one of the clearest expressions of the tendency to make someone else an "all-in-all" in the attempt to relieve emotional pain. |

Craving For Love
We were meant to receive love from God and give it to each other in overflowing abundance. We were made for love, but we don't get it because - by and large - we have separated ourselves from the Source of love. Only God can give it. When we don’t receive God's love, we look for substitutes. Sometimes the search can take us into dark and addictive places.
