Marriage
"We also wish warmly to affirm those sisters and brothers, already in membership with orthodox churches, who - while experiencing same-sex desires and feelings - nevertheless battle with the rest of us, in repentance and faith, for a lifestyle that affirms marriage [between a man and woman] and celibacy as the two given norms for sexual expression. There is room for every kind of background and past sinful experience among members of Christ's flock as we learn the way of repentance and renewed lives, for "such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God" (1 Corinthians 6:11). This is true inclusivity."

Synopsis
"Why do Christians experience sickness and suffering? How should they face such trials? How in fact Do they face them? In this book Peter Jeffery provides biblical principles to guide the Christian in his approach to this subject. The practical outworking of these principles is illustrated in the second half of the book which contains five testimonies by church members who have experienced times of real trial and testing. An excellent book, especially helpful to Christians who are going through a time of suffering."
