Winner of the National Bronze Medal for Gay/Lesbian/Bi/Trans NonFiction in the 2014 Independent Publisher Book Awards, Queer Lessons for Churches on the Straight and Narrow is about changing the questions we ask about sexuality, gender identity, and faith. Sanders helps us imagine new pathways into old conversations by shifting our attitude from one of suspicious scrutiny toward LGBTQ people to one of compassionate curiosity. Less concerned with answering questions, it aims to cultivate our imagination for asking new questions. Sanders asks, 'What can all Christians learn from LGBTQ people that will enhance our lives and strengthen our communities of faith?' Lessons are offered on the themes of relationship, community, faithfulness, love, violence, and forgiveness.
