Abstract
In this timely book, award-winning author Kevin DeYoung challenges each of us -- the skeptic and the seeker, the certain and the confused -- to take a humble look at God's Word regarding the issue of homosexuality. After examining key biblical passages in both the Old and New Testaments and the Bible's overarching teaching regarding sexuality, DeYoung responds to popular objections raised by Christians and non-Christians alike, making this an indispensable resource for thinking through one of the most pressing issues of our day. - Back cover.
