This review is from: The Word Is Out: The Bible Reclaimed for Lesbians and Gay Men (Paperback)

This book is just what the doctor ordered! It has small and focused messages that are very encouraging. If you like this book, you may also enjoy books by Barbara Brown Taylor. She has an inclusive view of the gospel and brings new light to Bible stories we've learned since we were babies, growing up on the 2nd pew, next to the organ.
