A Strong Delusion: Confronting the "Gay Christian" Movement by Joe
Dallas
This well-known counselor to those seeking to leave the gay lifestyle offers you
a compassionate, biblical view of the "gay Christian" movement. Dallas clearly
explains pro-gay theology, how people can be deceived by it, the scriptural
arguments of pro-gays, the need for bold love, and more to help you confront
this issue with sensitivity.
Eternal Victim/Eternal Victor by Donnie
McClurkin
Remembering and recounting the ordeals of his early childhood, Donnie McClurkin
resurrects feelings of hurt and pain that had long been forgotten. He causes
himself to reveal the scars of healed wounds, explain how it happened, how he
endured, and how he and his family came out delivered and victorious. This truly
personal testimony by one of Gospel music's favorite artists, shares his
tremendous compassion for those who have not received healing for their hurts,
as well as those who are still in the midst of their personal struggles -
especially the children. From the moment he neglected watching
his two-year old brother, only to see him toddle into the street and be
tragically killed by a speeding car, to the extreme sexual violation of an uncle
who took advantage of his childhood innocence, to his bout with homosexuality,
McClurkin candidly recounts the steps he took to turn his life from a victim to
a victor.

together with the gracious goodness of a loving God. He also discusses the possible

confusion" - Dr. David K. Foster

The Bible and Homosexual Practice
by Robert A.J. Gagnon Gagnon offers the most thorough analysis to date of the biblical texts relating to homosexuality. He demonstrates why attempts to classify the Bible's rejection of same-sex intercourse as irrelevant for our contemporary context fail to do justice to the biblical texts and to current scientific data. Gagnon's book powerfully challenges attempts to identify love and inclusivity with affirmation of homosexual practice. |
