People to Be Loved: Why Homosexuality Is Not Just an Issue

In People to Be Loved: Why Homosexuality Is Not Just an Issue, theologian and biblical scholar Dr. Preston Sprinkle offers a compassionate, rigorous, and deeply pastoral guide to the conversations surrounding same-sex attraction and the Christian faith. Refusing to reduce individuals to abstract political debates or cultural battlegrounds, Sprinkle insists that the church must view LGBTQ people first and foremost as human beings made in the image of God who are worthy of unconditional love, dignity, and belonging. Through careful exegesis of Old and New Testament passages alongside sociological research and personal stories, Sprinkle upholds historic biblical sexual ethics while convicting believers of self-righteousness and relational neglect. This balanced volume equips pastors, parents, and everyday Christians to extend authentic hospitality, speak truth with humility, and embody Christlike grace.
