Gaede skillfully weaves together the stories of many congregations and how they faced and dealt with the issue of homosexuality. A helpful resource for assisting congregations that seek to engage in dialogue about one of the most difficult faith issues today, the book does not take a theological stand, but rather draws on the experiences of others who have struggled with how to address this issue from a position of respect for all views.

Great for:
Congregations who are wanting to begin the conversation regarding homosexuality in their places of worship, and want to hear from other voices who have already had such a discussion. Note: this resource, while it claims respect for all views, does strongly favor stories of congregations who have eventually taken a welcoming and affirming stance.
