Few issus in recent years have caused as much controvery in so many churches as homosexuality. Because of the pain created by these debates within the churches, the ecumenical movement has been reluctant to take the issue onto its agenda, even though one of its essential roles is precisely to enable the churches to encounter one another in dialogue at points where they tend to be separated from one anothe by sharply contradictory convictions.
In this book Alan A. Brash seeks to encourage just such a dialogue on homosexuality. What he has to say reflects his experiences in a local congregation in Aotearoa New Zeland as well as a familiarity with churches around the world that comes from many years of international ecumenical service. He points the way towards a respectful understanding of divergent interpretations of the Bible, theology and ethics in order to help Christians to reflect on their own convictions and to face together a sensitive topica which has profound consequences for the lives of many people and for the unity of the church of Jesus Christ. |
