Homosexuality and the bible, outdated advise or words of life?
As the conversation around homosexuality becomes increasingly hostile on all sides, it can be difficult to know where to stand as a Christian. You don’t want to compromise God’s Word, either by blindly following the culture or by treating others with hatred and contempt. How do you hold onto your convictions without projecting an image of Christ that is self-righteous and judgmental? R. Nicholas Black addresses both sides of this equation. Challenging easy assumptions about gays and lesbians, he encourages you to build the foundation of your conversation on God’s love for people created in his image. He also examines some of the most disputed passages regarding homosexuality and draws out the fuller story of God’s design for sexuality.

“New Growth Press minibooks are a solidly biblical and practical ministry tool enabling you to give biblical counsel in a readable format to people in a variety of settings and can extend your ability to biblically counsel in places and people you cannot go or reach otherwise. I really appreciate how in about thirty pages they confront the problem and give biblical solutions and practical strategies for change. Also, having them available in easy-to-see wall racks within easy reach of our traffic makes them very easy to utilize. I highly recommend these excellent resources in helping people find biblical answers to their life problems, enabling them to find and grow to be like Christ.” Daniel Hartwig, Pastor, Calvary Baptist Church, Dysart, IA
