Download Washed and Waiting: Reflections on Christian Faithfulness and Homosexuality AudioBook Free
This is a book written primarily for homosexual Christians and the ones who love them. Part memoir, part pastoral-theological representation, this book wrestles with three main regions of struggle that many homosexual Christians face: (1) What is God's will for sexuality? (2) If the historic Christian tradition is right and same-sex action is ruled out, how should homosexual Christians deal using their resulting loneliness? (3) How can gay Christians come to an experience of elegance that rescues them from crippling emotions of pity and guilt? Creator Wesley Hill is not advocating that it's possible for each and every gay Christian to become upright, nor is he expressing that God affirms homosexuality. Instead, Hill comes along with homosexual Christians and says, "You aren't alone. Here's my experience; it's like yours. And God has been us. We are able to reveal in God's elegance." While some authors profess a profound faith in Christ and declare a powerful experience of the Holy Spirit exactly in and through their homosexual practice, Hill's own report, in comparison, is a tale of feeling spiritually hindered, somewhat than helped, by his homosexuality. His report testifies that homosexuality had not been God's original creative goal for humanity-that it is, on the other hand, a tragic sign of human nature and associations being fractured by sin-and therefore that homosexual practice goes against God's exhibit will for any humans, especially those who rely upon Christ.
