Leading a Church in a Time of Sexual Questioning: Grace-Filled Wisdom for Day-To-Day Ministry

By Bruce B Miller and Bruce B. Miller

Book Overview

Biblical Guidance for Ministering God's Love in a Sexually Diverse Culture

In a time when sexual norms are changing rapidly, how can a local church be a place of grace--a loving community for all kinds of people--where everyone can flourish and disagreements are overcome in a Christlike spirit while at the same time stay true to biblical standards?

In a way that appeals to pastors and lay leaders alike, Bruce offers a biblical theology of sexuality and provides practical wisdom for how a church can approach ministering to, and alongside, people who identify their sexuality in diverse ways: LGBTQ+. Here is a church-tested program full of wise pastoral insights to help church leaders think through day-to-day decisions, such as how to handle baby dedications, small groups, who can serve, membership, baptism, retreats, the Lord's Supper, weddings, funerals, teaching, hiring, and caring for those caught in sin. If you are a leader who is facing any of these challenging issues and decisions, then this practical, grace-filled book is for you.
