Reaching the heart of Gay men and women in your world
Author Alan Chambers - a former homosexual himself - and four of his colleagues at Exodus International offer practical and biblical insights on how both individuals and churches can become a haven for homosexuals seeking freedom from same-sex attraction. In this comprehensive guide to helping homosexuals, readers will learn about: the roots of homosexuality; God's radical grace for sexual sinners; reaching youth both within and outside the church; dealing with fear and ignorance in the church; leading gays to Christ; mentoring homosexuals in the church; three degrees of homosexuality: militant, moderate or repentant; five things not to do in reaching out to gays; and, much more about this often perplexing subject.
As this controversial issue has gained acceptance in our culture, it's become increasingly difficult for the church to respond without sounding too harsh for something that is clearly wrong. Alan Chambers and colleagues from Exodus International offer insight about same sex couples, answers common questions and open the door for significant ministry with homosexuals God's put in your path.
( Evangelism is not about condemning peoples sin, but about sharing the Good news of Salvation, to
a world that needs hope. the Bible teaches, For all have sinned, and all come short of the Glory of God.
But the good news, is Jesus is the way, the truth and and the life).
