From Douglas Jacoby’s Newsletter:
GENDER & GAY MARRIAGE — WEBINAR WITH RUBEL SHELLY |
|
|
|
|
From Douglas: This is the best book on the topic I’ve ever read, and the webinar based on it should be especially helpful to church leaders, Bible teachers, parents of children who have “come out,” younger persons, and all who are willing to look at the historical and biblical evidence. Rubel is also one of the most compassionate Christians I know. His wisdom and tone will make for an encouraging session, even for those who disagree or are unsure. Please don’t miss this opportunity! |
