When Homosexuality Hits Home: What to Do When a Loved One Says, ''I'm Gay''

by Joe Dallas

Overview

“There’s something I need to tell you…I’m gay.”

These are hard words to hear from a beloved family member. But as hard as they are to hear, they are also hard for the same-sex-attracted person to utter.

No matter the relationship—parent, child, grandparent, spouse, sibling, or other, that admission will likely mark a change in the way you and your loved one understand each other. These can be difficult waters to navigate, but Joe Dallas knows the rough waters firsthand and offers answers to the questions you need answered.

• How do I show my love for my same-sex attracted family member and yet remain faithful to the Bible’s admonitions about homosexuality?
• Should I attend my loved one’s gay wedding?
• What caused his or her homosexuality? Am I to blame?
• Can people change their sexual orientation?

From his many years of helping families answer tough questions about homosexuality, Joe Dallas offers you sound, compassionate, and biblically accurate advice as you take a journey you never anticipated.
