What Some Of You Were

Description

What some of you were explores cultural, medical and Biblical Issues relating to homosexuality. There is also a discussion guide for small groups. Despite what the secular media and the gay community say, there are many Christians who do not wish to embrace a gay identity. These are people who, because of their commitment to Jesus Christ and their belief in the Bible, choose not to act upon their same-sex attraction. This book contains stories of people who have made that choice. They wish to share their struggles, and the way in which God has brought about change in their lives. Their hope is that these stories will serve to: - bring encouragement and hope to those who are also struggling with unwanted feelings of same-sex attraction; - educate, inform and encourage the wider Christian community about how to respond to homosexuality, and in particular how to help those in our midst who are struggling. What some of you were also contains four useful appendices exploring cultural, medical and Biblical issues relating to homosexuality. There is also a discussion guide for small groups.
