Description

Two Views on Homosexuality, the Bible, and the ChurchNo issue is more divisive or more pressing for the church today than homosexuality. Two Views on Homosexuality, the Bible, and the Church brings a fresh perspective to a well worn debate. While Christian debates about homosexuality are most often dominated by biblical exegesis, this book seeks to give much needed attention to the rich history of received Christian tradition, bringing the Bible into conversation with historical and systematic theology.

No issue is more divisive or more pressing for the church today than homosexuality. Two Views on Homosexuality, the Bible, and the Church brings a fresh perspective to a well-worn debate. While Christian debates about homosexuality are most often dominated by biblical exegesis, this book seeks to give much-needed attention to the rich history of received Christian tradition, bringing the Bible into conversation with historical and systematic theology. To that end, both theologians and biblical scholars--well accomplished in their fields and conversant in issues of sexuality and gender--articulate and defend each of the two views:

Affirming view

  • William Loader
  • Megan K. DeFranza

Traditional view

  • Wesley Hill
  • Stephen R. Holmes

Unique among most debates on homosexuality, this book presents a constructive dialogue between people who disagree on significant ethical and theological matters, and yet maintain a respectful and humanizing posture toward one another. Even as these scholars articulate pointed arguments for their position with academic rigor and depth, they do so cordially, clearly, and compassionately, without demeaning the other.

The main essays are followed by exceptionally insightful responses and rejoinders that interact with their fellow essayists with convicted civility. Holding to a high view of Scripture, a commitment to the gospel and the church, and a love for people--especially those most affected by this topic--the contributors wrestle deeply with the Bible and theology, especially the prohibition texts, the role of procreation, gender complementarity, and pastoral accommodation.

The book concludes with general editor Preston Sprinkle's reflections on the future of discussions on faith and sexuality.

Dog loves but not durable.
Style: Plush Surprise Color, Size: 24"
Our Golden has gone through 3 of these. He absolutely loves them. Contains two kinds of squeakers and crunchy noise maker. But they don’t last long so it’s good they’re inexpensive. Just wish the fabric was more durable.

Our dog loves them
Style: Latex Surpise Color, Size: 6"
Not for every type of dog, but our dog LOVES these things. Try one and see how it goes. They are cheap, so no great loss if your dog doesn't like it, But if it does, you'll have a great time with them. Best $3 I could spend

Cute Toy
Style: Plush Surprise Color, Size: 6"
Actually got this for my lovebird. At first she hated it, so I gave it the name “Creepy Roomate”. Then she ripped its eyes out and now she sleeps on him. So, it’s a hit. As a sidenote, bought her another one. She tore it to shreds. I guess there is only one “Creepy Roomate”. :)
