"The church has -- unintentionally or sometimes intentionally -- adopted an idolatrous view of marriage and sex, one that leaves single people in the dust, wondering if they're incomplete as image bears of God. The marriage-is-necessary-to-survive narrative is fuelled by an unbiblical theology that suggests Jesus himself is doing something wrong."

The chapter where Sprinkle addresses the argument that Jesus never mentioned homosexuality was disappointing.
Sprinkle speculates about which Jewish group Jesus was aligned with Hillel or Shammai. He gave no citations for this or scholarship to illuminate this assertion.
I feel like this issue comes down to whose speculations are more appealing.
Sprinkle often reads like a surfer dude with a PhD, which is weird.

So far, this is a clear, accessible treatment of complex issues. Sprinkle is gracious and fair. He acknowledges when the opposing view has a point.
That said, anyone reading this has to be aware that Sprinkle's pre-supposition is that the Bible is completely inerrant. This is where the rubber meets the road: all of the solid arguments won't guarantee a change of view if the individual questions inerrancy.
