5.0 out of 5 stars Wholeness of Being, January 2, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Healing Homosexuality (Paperback)

This book offers healing and wholeness to all, the homosexual included. I was deeply moved. Payne's ideas were expressed in a loving manner. Her insights are real and encouraging. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Healing Homosexuality, February 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Healing Homosexuality (Paperback)

Don't read this book if you have a phobia about personal transformation, whine about gay bigots and homophobia, or if you can't confront your own weaknesses and inadequacies (gay or not). Otherwise, this book is worth reading - especially for men who honestly struggle with their masculinity and have not had the courage or understanding to see the possible connection with their relationship to their father as a child. The book offers hope for the pain of that dysfunctional relationship - which the author says is often hidden or buried in one's deep mind/heart. If a suffering person wants help with accepting his own masculine being (as is - not some false stereotype you lust for) and is willing to begin a journey to wholeness, the author speaks of hope through a personal encounter with the compassionate and loving person of Jesus - who comes to heal and transform gays and straights alike.

This review is from: Healing Homosexuality (Paperback)

I was, unfortunately, forced to read this book for a university paper studying examples of bigotry in modern literature, and it gave me plenty to write about. The author describes homosexuality as an evil act which one must offer repentence for in order to escape the burning fires of hell. I cannot believe Ms Payne could have such conviction in this rubbish that she would be willing to put there name to it. Does the woman have no shame?
