Are you or someone you love wrestling with faith and LGBTQIA questions?

Regardless of marital status or sexual orientation, every person has a God-given need for ties with those of his/her own sex. Karl W. Beckstrand (M.A., conflict resolution) says there are more kinds of connection than we know, happier than the sparse paths the world often signals.

Has anything taken God by Surprise? God can make anything a blessing.

Discover scriptural keys to seeing ourselves as God sees us, seeing beyond ourselves, and joyfully transforming how we relate with others. Beckstrand offers insights to bolster confidence in God's love for each person and His designs for differences.

Definitive...honest reflection.... Readers will be gratified by its conclusions and novel assertions...particularly relating to meaningful relationships...which lends it distinction and is refreshing to read. - The BookLife Prize (Publisher's Weekly)

God doesn't simply tolerate queerness, it is-expressed attentively-part of His plan for our joy. Emotional needs can manifest as sexual desire, like feeling hungry when you're dehydrated. By neglecting true emotional connection, the feeling of neediness persists. God can help us fulfill our needs while honoring His will.

Meeting emotional needs healthfully can make us more loving and resilient and reduce discouragement, isolation, even addictive behavior. These principles apply to gay persons, heterosexuals, married people, singles, women, and men. Chapters include:

  • Either/Or?
  • Is It All about Sex?
  • What's Good About Attraction to Your Own Sex?
  • Is Fluidity Real?
  • Are Competing Desires Healthful?
  • Is Mixed Orientation Marriage a Happy Option for Some?
  • How to Not Miss Out
  • Close Beyond Imagination
