Loving my (LGBT) neighbor

Loving my (LGBT) neighbor

By Glenn T. Stanton

Book Description

When Jesus commanded us to love our neighbors as ourselves, He immediately faced the question that still challenges believers today: "Who is my neighbor?" This thoughtful exploration addresses one of the most complex issues facing contemporary Christians—how to authentically love and engage with LGBT individuals while remaining true to their faith.

Drawing from over a decade of direct experience with this sensitive topic, Glenn T. Stanton offers practical guidance for Christians seeking to navigate the intersection of faith and sexuality with grace. Rather than providing simple answers to complicated questions, this work focuses on the heart of Christian discipleship: learning to embody Christ's love toward those who may hold different beliefs or live different lifestyles.

The book recognizes that homosexuality has become a deeply divisive issue within both secular culture and church communities. Instead of adding to the polarization, Stanton presents a path forward that honors both biblical principles and human dignity. His approach emphasizes genuine relationship-building and respectful dialogue over judgment or avoidance.

Written for everyday believers and clergy alike, this resource equips readers with tools for meaningful engagement across ideological differences. It challenges Christians to move beyond theoretical debates toward practical expressions of love that reflect Jesus' own example of reaching across social and cultural divides to connect with all people.
