Sinopsis

In a world as divisive as ours, can Christians ever find middle ground on LGBTQ+ issues?
 
Perhaps, if you’re willing to marry Biblical truths with grace and love in a nonjudgmental way that the extremes on both sides of the aisles have failed to do in the past.
 
Peter DeHaan, a lifelong student of the Bible, does just that in THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH’S LGBTQ FAILURE. He won’t be politically correct, but he will be Biblically correct. And he certainly isn’t afraid to speak hard truths even if it makes people uncomfortable.
 
His goal is to see Christians like you push past the status quo and reconsider how you practice your faith in every area of your life, including how you handle LGBTQ+ issues.
 
If you’re looking for a dozen reasons why churches should judge and shun LGBTQ+ people, this book isn’t for you. But it also isn’t for readers who want to embrace a progressive stance that places secular ideals over entire passages of Scripture to be more palatable for today’s politically correct society.
 
In a world marked by so much division, THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH’S LGBTQ FAILURE forces conservative Christians to examine their history of judgmentalism while still upholding Biblical standards of sexual purity and marital sanctity. And the book urges liberal Christians to reclaim the Bible as their ultimate guide instead of elevating worldly ideals.
 
In this thought-provoking, insightful book, Peter DeHaan encourages Christians to speak hard truths in love. With sensitivity and empathy, Peter combines Biblical doctrine as well as Christian grace in a volume that’s critical reading for thoughtful believers on both sides of this debate.
 
For a reasonable, grace-filled conversation about how loving, Bible-believing Christians should respond to LGBTQ+ people and their allies, read THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH’S LGBTQ FAILURE today.

    The New Christian Zionism -...

    Can a theological case be made from Scripture that Israel still has a claim to the Promised Land? Christian Zionism is often seen as the offspring of premillennial dispensationalism. But the historical roots of Christian Zionism came long before the rise of the Plymouth Brethren and John Nelson Darby. In fact, the authors of The New Christian Zionism contend that the biblical and theological connections between covenant and land are nearly as close in the New Testament as in the Old. Written with academic rigor by experts in the field, this book proposes that Zionism can be defended historically, theologically, politically and morally. While this does not sanctify every policy and practice of the current Israeli government, the authors include recommendations for how twenty-first-century Christian theology should rethink its understanding of both ancient and contemporary Israel, the Bible and Christian theology more broadly. This provocative volume proposes a place for Christian Zionism in an integrated biblical vision.
