Book Overview

101 Probing Questions...101 Compassionate and Scriptural Answers

from Focus on the Family's Mike Haley

Almost daily we hear news reports that confirm the acceptance of homosexuality in our culture. Homosexuals are adopting children, appearing as characters on television programs, taking vacations catering to an exclusively gay clientele, and even seeking the right to "marry" their partners. But is this acceptance...

A great resource!

This book is great to have around as a go to resource. Since it handles so many topics, it's not very indepth, but there IS quite a bit of detail, and the resource pages in the back provide an extensive list of for those who want to explore further. This is a good starting point for those who are just starting out to find answers on Homosexuality. I think that Mike does a good job of being honest and objective.

No sweet coating

I found the book honest, direct and respectful of the reader who really just wants the facts from someone who knows what he's talking about, and actually walks the talk. I enjoyed the practical suggestions to family members, based on what he and his family went through.

Mother of Three Son's

Wow! This book answered all of my questions about homosexuality and many, many more. Haley's compassionate way of answering questions shows understanding, love, and concern for those who are where he once was. Haley's book stresses the importance of reaching out in love to family and friends who struggle with homosexuality. This book has been invaluable to me and my brother who has been seeking change in his own lifestyle. It has given me ways to respond to him that weren't offensive but helped to keep the channels of communication open and honest. My brother has been encouraged by the HOPE of change that Haley presents in his book. He is successfully walking through the healing process becoming the man that God originally intended for him to be. Some of the other reviews listed here: They couldn't have read the same book I did. Political motivation? YOU BET.

The debate some people want to avoid

Much of the criticism aimed at this book misses the point: Many gay men and women and their families struggle with homosexuality, and they want help in understanding who they can trust to answer their concerns. Mike Haley is a brave man for trying to do something few others are willing to do.

A compassionate, informative, authoritative look at a complex issue

It's funny that in just about every area of life, we consider someone who has personal experience with a topic to be an excellent offerer of insight on that topic: The recovering alcoholic mentors the guy just into treatment, and we applaud; people who exercised their way from fatness to fitness write books and make videos about how to lose weight, and we buy them; Donald Trump tells us how to master the art of the deal, and all's right with the world. Strange, then, the hits Mike Haley is taking here for "101 Frequently Asked Questions About Homosexuality" -- criticism obviously motivated more by the critics' political agendas than by their reading of Haley's book. And what about the book? Haley says it grew out of actual questions he's been asked by gays and family members and friends of gays during his travels across the country. He recreates those questions and offers straightforward, informative answers that are in no way filled with the kind of invective or judgment suggested by other reviewers here -- some of whom admit they haven't even read the book. What Haley offers here is desperately needed, rendered in the spirit of Christian love and filtered through his experience not only as a former homosexual, but as a counselor. If you're the parent of a gay child, somebody who wants to better interact with a gay coworker or someone just coming to grips with your own same-sex attractions, you will find both hope and help in these pages.
