The Truth About Same-Sex Marriage: 6 Things You Must Know About What's Really at Stake

The headlines only tell part of the story. In this revised and updated version of his bestselling book, Dr. Erwin Lutzer clearly and accurately depicts the truth about what is at stake in the same-sex marriage debate.

Dr. Lutzer expertly answers the questions that so many individuals, parents, friends, and families are asking, like:

• How did we get to this point?
• Why is marriage, as God intended it, better—and healthier?
• How can I talk to my kids about this?
• How do I responsibly read, watch, and filter the news?
• Is there still hope?

Let no one say that we have to choose between loving homosexuals and opposing same-sex marriage. Biblically, love is defined not as license to do whatever we want, but as leading people in the truth. Obviously, we must be as concerned about our own sins as we are about the sins of the homosexual community. We must be concerned enough to speak out about any action, heterosexual or homosexual, that violates God’s intended plan for marriage and the family.

This simple, straightforward look at the issue of same-sex marriage will equip you to know what is really happening and, most importantly, why it matters for you.
