When Gay Comes Home: Learning to Build Bridges, Paperback

Contributor(s):

• Author: Wilna Van Beek

When a person tells you they're gay, what is your first reaction? How do
you "see" them? What kind of "glasses" do you have on? Are you comfortably
able to speak with confidence, using the right language, when this topic
comes up? In When Gay Comes Home, you will learn about the
redemptive power of God and it will guide you in how to put on your Jesus
glasses, helping you to communicate in a loving and respectful way, thus
building bridges instead of walls.

Study Guide Included. Recommended for parents, youth pastors, and
teachers to educate and equip children from the age of nine and up. Also
includes a section specifically developed for pastors.

Never before have we faced such challenges in our culture with respect to
issues of our sexuality and gender identity. Wilna van Beek is a voice of
wisdom, strength, and courage in the desert. I have not seen this kind of
profoundly important information presented so succinctly in any other
format. Simplifying and bringing the confusion into an understandable place
of dialogue and support, she has captured both the heart of the matter and
the challenge of our culture. Families facing unexpected news of a child who
"comes out," or someone dealing with their own internal battle, will find
real answers as they wrestle through this emotionally charged topic. Wilna's
bravery, character, and calling are for such a time as this and I thank God
for her
