Scripture, Ethics, and the Possibility of Same-Sex Relationships

De: Karen R. Keen

Narrado por: Tanya Eby

When it comes to same-sex relationships, this book by Karen Keen contains the most thoughtful, balanced, biblically grounded discussion you’re likely to encounter anywhere. With pastoral sensitivity and respect for biblical authority, Keen breaks through current stalemates in the debate surrounding faith and sexual identity.

The fresh, evenhanded reevaluation of Scripture, Christian tradition, theology, and science in Keen’s Scripture, Ethics, and the Possibility of Same-Sex Relationships will appeal to both traditionalist and progressive church leaders and parishioners, students of ethics and biblical studies, and gay and lesbian people who often feel painfully torn between faith and sexuality.

Very enlightening

I had taken Karen’s online class and the ideas were familiar. Nevertheless I am glad I listened to this as it was wonderfully done and reminded me of all I had learned. I tend to get sucked back in to self doubt and needed this refresher. Thanks, Karen!

Well written and balanced perspective

I loved this book. It properly represented multiple sides in this complex issue, and it gave helpful recommendations for how to live forward without compromising orthodoxy.

Good perspective

A healthy perspective to better understand the role of church and the LGBTQ+ community. Great read!

I Really Appreciate this Book

This book provides excellent research. It tells an interesting life story without being a biography.

Wonderful and Thought-Provoking

This is an excellent book for those questioning a Gay-affirming Christian view. It doesn’t try to cover the usual “Clobber Passages” and instead goes discusses the different precedents in The Bible and Church history that would allow to a Christian and Church acceptance of same-sex relationships and marriage.

It’s truly an underrated book in this genre, and I’m so happy I’ve listened to it!
