OK so I\u2019m writing this book, supposedly, about why it is so hard for so many gay people growing up in the Church to experience God as a tender father or lover who cherishes them, what it\u2019s like to start experiencing that divine tenderness for the first time, and practices which can help people know God in this way. And I\u2019d like to include a lot of other people\u2019s voices, since it was talking to other gay Christians which convinced me of the need for a book of this kind. So if you are lgbt\/ssa, you accept the Christian understanding of marriage as the union of a man and a woman, and you have a story about coming to know God\u2019s tenderness for you, shoot me an email at eve_tushnet@yahoo.com . And of course please do pass this on to anyone who might be interested.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
