Recenzii
Kenneth Burr has written a comprehensive, compelling guidebook of immense help to therapists and pastors. One of the great strengths of the book is Burr’s own journey to affirming the spiritual wisdom and wholeness of persons with a sexual orientation outside the mainstream. I heartily concur with his conclusion after getting to know such people, that we don’t change them; they change us! - Donald G. Hanway, Episcopal priest and former campus pastor, author of A Theology of Gay and Lesbian Inclusion: Love Letters to the Church
This book provides considerable information and clarity on a full range of psychological and theological issues including misconceptions about alternate sexual orientations and the so-called scriptural prohibitions against homosexuality. Counselors and therapists of all persuasions will find it an invaluable reference source. Highly recommended. - Len Sperry, MD, PhD, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI; author, Handbook of Diagnosis and Treatment of DSM-IV-TR Personality Disorders, 2nd Edition
I found in this book sections that I will recommend to undergrad students who believe themselves to be an abomination, to the chaplain in Religious Life who is struggling with affirmation of queer students, and the staff psychiatrist who is uncertain how to talk about issues of faith with her clients. This book is definitely a very valuable and needed resource. - Janie K. Long, PhD, Director, Center for LGBT Life, Duke University, Durham, NC
