Walking with gay friends

Walking with gay friends

Published in 2007, Walking with gay friends by Alex Tylee equips friends, familiies and the wider church understand and reach out to gay people. You can purchase it directly from IVP or Amazon.

Alex’s desire is to write a book to help people share their faith with people from the gay community. That means she treads on controversial ground! But she does so in a sensitive and compassionate way.

The first chapter is a testimony to Alex’s own struggles with her sexuality. She goes on to describe how she was converted to Christianity, and has now made the commitment to reject any same-sex sexual relationship. Alex takes seriously the Bible as God’s word, and its clear teaching that sexual expression is reserved for heterosexual marriage. But because she shares her own struggles so honestly, and quotes other people who also live with same sex attraction, all she says in the rest of the book is sown with threads of credibility, experience, and compassion. The book offers great wisdom in understanding of all the issues involved with walking with our gay friends.
