Living in a Gray World: A Christian Teen's Guide to Understanding Homosexuality is an honest, accessible resource for Christian teens who have lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) questions that often go unanswered. Author Preston Sprinkle uses biblical scholarship and real-life examples to explore how we can approach homosexuality in a way that brings God's intentions into our modern world. In today's world, the topic of homosexuality seems to be part of everyday conversation in the media, in politics, and even inside churches, with pressure to accept one view or the other. And if you're a Christian teen, there seems to be few easy answers to the issues you regularly encounter, such as: Can you be friends with someone who is gay What if your sister is a lesbian, or you sometimes wonder if you might be as well Does the Bible really say homosexuality is wrong What does God want us to do and say Preston Sprinkle has encountered these same questions, and as a theologian and a college professor he has dealt with these issues firsthand. Through honest conversation, real-life examples, and biblical research, Sprinkle unpacks what we can know to be true, and how Scripture's overall message to us today allows us to move forward and find answers that align with God's intent.
