God, Gays & the Church - Human Sexuality & experience in Christian Thinking

Author: Ed Holland, Sugden and Finch
Published By: The Latimer Trust (London)
Pages: 249
Price: £9.99
ISBN: 978 9 46307 93

Reviewed by Steven Henwood.

This book is aimed for Anglicans, written by Anglicans and intended to be a correction to the drift towards the full inclusion of practising gay Anglicans at the very heart of the church’s establishment.

There are stories of Christians who once believed they had a homosexual orientation, but now live happy and fulfilled lives in line with biblical sexual ethics. Alongside these stories we have sections on genetics, pastoral care, theology and culture.

The book is well written and presented and will be welcomed by many within the Anglican Communion, but will have limited appeal beyond. As you start to read, you sense the flow of the arguments and often you can anticipate the conclusion before you arrive at the closing paragraphs of the chapter.
