Homosexuality and Gender: Overcoming Homosexuality
“And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” (I Cor. 6:11, NIV)Although many in the media the mental health professions deny it, the fact of the matter is that many men and women have overcome their unwanted same-sex attractions and learned to steward their sexuality in alignment with their religious values and ethics. And despite the cacophony of cynical voices that say otherwise, we want to share with you the gospel message of transformation and hope – change is possible.
