Having seen both a lecture and a video by author Matthew Vines, I found this book a quick read and helpful refresher as I prepare to serve as a volunteer at conference with The Reformation Project this weekend. Vines addresses the typical scriptures invoked against same-sex relationships, from a deeply held, theologically conservative Christian perspective. While I enter the discussion from a more progressive faith stance, I value his study, insights and logical re-consideration of the meaning of these texts. His commitment to Scripture, faith and a Christian way of living permeate both the book and his broader work to reform church teaching on sexual orientation and gender identity, and to see that LGBT Christians have support and safety in communities of faith. I recommend this book and Vines' videos (available on YouTube)for all.
