Book Description

0275957306 978-0275957308 June 25, 1997 First Edition

The lives of sixty-eight gay male Christian couples in Britain are documented in this well-written and important study. Despite the lack of social support and religious affirmation, these men have succeeded in establishing meaningful and fulfilling partnerships. Focusing on the internal and external dimensions of their partnerships, the book presents extensive interview data that illustrates how these couples manage their partnerships. It is written in a highly accessible style that advances the sociological understanding of an understudied minority.

5.0 out of 5 stars YES!, July 27, 2008
This review is from: Gay Male Christian Couples: Life Stories (Hardcover)
This book is wonderful! The world needs more stories like these which reveal the gay Christian soul, and the beauty and love may gay Christian couples share. This has been part of the motivation of my own work, especially my recent anthology of LGBT Christian poetry. I am glad to see that there are other books of this nature. This book is a tad expensive though, but a must have for every library or LGBT community center!
