In the last few decades, homosexuality has moved from the margins of society to the mainstream. In response to this cultural shift, Christian apologist and radio host Kerby Anderson sorts through myths to deliver the facts on homosexuality and the social impact it has had on families, the church, schools, and traditional marriage. With a balance of God’s truth found in theBible and a desire to reach out to homosexuals, he answers key questions about homosexuality,
What percentage of the population is homosexual?Is homosexuality the worst of all sins?Did Jesus remove God’s condemnation of homosexuality?Is there a connection between gay teens and suicide?What are the causes of homosexuality?Anderson also looks at the spiritual aspects of homosexuality and offers practical suggestions for Christians seeking to reach out to gay and lesbian friends and loved ones.
This book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to better understand the roots, goals, and implications of homosexuality and the pro–gay movement.
The Lord knows I learn through books; and He often puts books in my path because there's something in it that will expand my knowledge of a particular topic or subject. The book, A Biblical View Of Homosexuality was published in 2008. The back cover description piqued my interest so I purchased it.
I'm a Christian so I'm aware of Bible verses on all sexual sins,including homosexuality. I'm glad I read Kerby Anderson's book. His goal was to give a sensitive and factual approach to a difficult topic and I believe he did just that. Information backed up by research is given in the book to support what is being presented. He includes an extensive Bibliography, and Notes for each chapter so readers can double check for themselves.
The book was written to give a biblical point of view on homosexuality so for me it fulfilled its purpose.
