Torn: Rescuing the Gospel from the Gays-vs.-Christians Debate by Justin Lee

5.0

This book follows the emotional journey of a devout Christian youth discovering he is gay. The reader truly feels the emotional tugs as Justin trudges through his own self discovery and how this impacts his relationship with God. He feels authentically torn between what he was always taught to believe and the God he most deeply loves. As a straight Christian who supports monogamous LGBT relationships (aka Side A), I think this book would help other Christians who are exploring the gay vs. Christian debate themselves. So often we get caught up and forget that issues we are discussing are about real people and real experiences. Justin Lee brings that home in a loving and, I feel, unbiased manner. Thanks Justin for sharing your beautiful story. Enjoy.
