How can Christians read the sermon on the mount and not hold to Jesus' non-violent teaching? Why did Ezra refuse military protection and Nehemiah welcomed it?  Is the egalitarian and complementarian view of women in the church a Gospel issue? A couple of books Preston recommended (but hasn't read) on the case of what a church should look like are Robert Banks's Paul's Idea of Community and When Church Was a Family by Joe Hellerman. How open should someone who struggles with Same-Sex Attraction be?
