Messy grace : how a pastor with gay parents learned to love others without sacrificing conviction
Kaltenbach, Caleb2015
Books
Sometimes, grace gets messy. Caleb Kaltenbach was raised by LGBT parents, marched in gay pride parades as a youngster, and experienced firsthand the hatred and bitterness of some Christians toward his family. But then Caleb surprised everyone, including himself, by becoming a Christian - and a pastor. Very few issues in Christianity are as divisive as the acceptance of the LGBT community in the church. 'Messy Grace' shows us that Jesus's command to 'love your neighbour as yourself' doesn't have an exception clause for a gay 'neighbour' - or for that matter, any other 'neighbour' we might find it hard to relate to.
