Witness : Gay And Lesbian Clergy Report From The Front
$24.00
Based on interviews with more than a hundred gay and lesbian clergy, Dann Hazel constructs a mosiac depicting the ministry of gays and lesbians across the denominational spectrum.
Hazel’s subjects describe the personal challenges faced by gay and lesbian clergy, their efforts to do constructive work in theology in order to build faith communities where gay men and lesbians can flourish spiritually, and the growth of congregations led by gays and lesbians in various denominations.
The book concludes with predictions about the future shape of mainline churches, many of which are currently riven by the issue of gay and lesbian ministry.
These first-person accounts of despair, triumph, wrenching debates within both congregations and entire church polities, and the geneses of new churches make for powerful reading.
