In a discussion with my college-aged son during the 2004 election debates on gay marriage, I was shocked when he expressed sympathy for gay marriage, and I argued against it. Six months later, our family learned that our oldest son is gay. This sent us on a journey to understand the complexity of homosexuality. “Insights toward Understanding Homosexuality” focuses on six key topics: 1) Same Gender Attraction is Not a Choice; 2) It’s Not Just about Sex; 3) Scriptural Interpretation Must Account for Cultural Influences; 4) Like Us, Our Leaders Are Human; 5) Gay Marriage is Not a Threat to Traditional Families; 6) Understanding Mental Health Aspects.
