<br/><br/> This book is a clean and clear account of the issues we face within United Methodism. It moves beyond the sentimental and pious to straightforward logic and historical fact. Dr. Arnold makes convincing case supporting the current United Methodist stance on same-sex practices. His gracious and thoughtful presentation adds greatly to our ongoing conversation about human sexuality and God's divine plan for our lives.
