GAY … Such Were Some of Us: Stories of Transformation and Change

Edited by: David Longacre

The Pastor’s Monthly Book Suggestion – August, 2019

In this day of confusion and despair regarding human sexuality, gender identification, and the predisposition to one lifestyle or another, Harvest Ministry has produced a small but important work that lets us know that God is still able to change lives. As the back cover indicates, this book contains fifteen individual accounts of people “who struggled with same-sex attraction and experienced God’s loving intervention.” This is not a book about glory stories but one about descriptions of real-life people who walk with the Lord, finding hope and strength through faith in a faithful Savior.

I recommend this short work to anyone wrestling with the confusion of same-sex attraction and wondering if God can truly change a person. This is also a book that gives insight and encouragement to people who know and love those who struggle. As Christians, we must be willing and able to lovingly point people to Christ, yet sometimes we may harbor our own doubts as to whether the Lord truly changes the heart. My prayer is that this short volume will help us to overcome our doubts and assist us in having confidence in Christ as we walk with our struggling friends and loved ones.
