People To Be Loved by Preston Sprinkle
The subtitle reads Why Homosexuality is Not Just an Issue.
This book, in my opinion, is very balanced and fair giving a lot of understanding to the LGBT community. The author is both a scholar and a pastor and thus treats the scriptures from this perspective.
Sprinkle says the Christian church needs to get past the “straight people” versus “gay people” mindset. Biblical love does not mean affirming everyone’s behavior. Yet people, gay and straight, will never have the power to change unless they first experience genuine acceptance. It’s time for the church to start treating the LGBT community as people to be loved.
