About this audiobook
Equipped with thorough research, history, and biblical context, this book will enable you to wade into some of the main arguments against the historically Christian view of marriage:
- The biblical writers didn’t know about sexual orientation.
- Jesus never mentions homosexuality.
- Biblical teachings about women, slavery, and same-sex are on the same trajectory.
- Since some people are born gay, then being gay must be okay.
- The Bible has been mistranslated.
Preston carefully answers 21 of the strongest cases for same-sex marriage and offers a humanizing and thoughtful response to each one.
