AN UPDATED EDITION OF THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK
An evangelical Christian examines the impact of sexuality, the LGBTQ+ movement, and the future of the church in this thoughtful, deeply researched guide to navigating and mending the social and political division in our families and churches.
As a teenager and young man, Justin Lee felt deeply torn. Nicknamed "God Boy" by his peers, he knew that he was called to a life in the evangelical Christian ministry. But Lee harbored a secret: He also knew that he was gay. In this groundbreaking book, Lee recalls the events—his coming out to his parents, his experiences with the "ex-gay" movement, and his in-depth study of the Bible—that led him, eventually, to self-acceptance.
But more than just a memoir, Torn provides insightful, practical guidance for all committed Christians who wonder how to relate to gay friends or family members—or who struggle with their own sexuality. Convinced that "in a culture that sees gays and Christians as enemies, gay Christians are in a unique position to bring peace," Lee demonstrates that people of faith on both sides of the debate can respect, learn from, and love one another.
This description refers to a 2012 edition of the book.

"Disarmingly vulnerable...poignant..."—Christianity Today

Being a Christ-follower myself and "straight", I saw some of myself in both the bad and good responses to the LGBT community. I disagree with his theological position, but understand how he got there. What I most like is how he is trying to break down the walls between the Church and the LGBT community so that we can actually talk to each other without throwing condemnation or angry words around.
No matter what side of the conversation you are on, this book is well worth the read/listen.
Well Done
