Title
Still Time to Care: What We Can Learn from the Churchs Failed Attempt to Cure Homosexuality,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Charting the path forward for our churches and ministries in providing carenot a cure for our nonstraight sisters and brothers who are living lives of costly obedience to Jesus.At the start of the gay rights movement in 1969, evangelicalism's leading voices cast a vision for gay people who turn to Jesus. It was C.S. Lewis, Billy Graham, Francis Schaeffer and John Stott who were among the most respected leaders within theologically orthodox Protestantism. We see with them a positive pastoral approach toward gay people, an approach that viewed homosexuality as a fallen condition experienced by some Christians who needed care more than cure.With the birth and rise of the exgay movement, the focus shifted from care to cure. As a result, there are an estimated 700,000 people alive today who underwent conversion therapy in the United States alone. Many of these patients were treated by faithbased, testimonydriven parachurch ministries centered on the exgay script. Despite the best of intentions, the movement ended with very troubling results. Yet the exgay movement died not because it had the wrong sex ethic. It died because it was founded on a practice that diminished the beauty of the gospel.Yet even after the closure of the exgay umbrella organization Exodus International in 2013, the exgay script continues to walk about as the undead among us, pressuring people like me to say, 'I used to be gay, but I'm not gay anymore. Now I'm just samesex attracted.'For orthodox Christians, the way forward is to take a close look at our history. It is time again to focus with our NeoEvangelical fathers on caring over attempting to cure.With warmth and humor, as well as original research, Still Time to Care provides: Guidance for the gay person who hears the gospel and finds themselves smitten by the lifegiving call of Jesus. Guidance for the church to repent of its homophobia and instead offer gospelmotivated love and compassion.
