About this item

If you are a parent wrestling with God, you are not alone.When a child comes out as LGBTQ , Christian parents often find themselves navigating unfamiliar, unsettling terrain. Mark Yarhouse and Olya Zaporozhets, therapists and researchers with decades of experience, have written this book to provide perspective, insight, and the chance to learn from others who've shared a similar journey. Using data from studies of Christian parents of LGBTQ children, they deliver research-based insights and faithful wisdom that is accessible for parents, their friends, and church leaders.Yarhouse and Zaporozhets reframe the focus away from "culture war" questions that are not helpful to families in favor of practical counsel for maintaining and deepening relationships.
