Author Stuart Edser threads his own extraordinary story throughout the text, using this and his experience as a clinician to guide his thinking. At the end, he presents an alternative model of Christian discourse to that which we usually hear and offers a positive voice often absent from the Church's utterances on homosexuality UR - http://www.contentreserve.com/TitleInfo.asp?ID={1E33BD55-E8BD-4956-8272-693AF11F5FF9}&Format=50 UR - http://www.contentreserve.com/TitleInfo.asp?ID={1E33BD55-E8BD-4956-8272-693AF11F5FF9}&Format=410 UR - http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=481186 UR - http://images.contentreserve.com/ImageType-100/2103-1/{1E33BD55-E8BD-4956-8272-693AF11F5FF9}Img100.jpg ER -
