My Son, Beloved Stranger / Kate McLaughlin ISBN 0-8163-1257-5 Can Kate accept her gay son?
Can her church?
How would you react if you discovered someone you loved was homosexual? Or perhaps you already know someone in your church, at work, in your family, who is gay.
My Son, Beloved Stranger shares the real-life drama of a family rocked to its foundation as it confronts homosexuality. As Kate wrestled with the dark possibilities of her son's sexual orientation, she could not abandon her love and acceptance of him as her son. As understanding replaced fear, and unconditional love overruled prejudice, both Kate and Danny took courage in God's promise, "I will never leave you, nor forsake you." Homosexuality is an issue some find easier to leave untouched or pushed into the recesses of their minds. But how do Christians deal with it? How would Christ? As the debate continues, real people, real lives are affected. You need to read this story that "puts a face" on the issue of homosexuality. |
