Rev. Sample and Amy Delong did a thoughtful, thought-provoking job of editing this book. My thanks to them for following the call to explore with courage the issue of homosexuality in the Church. It is with these types of efforts that dialogue can occur, eyes and hearts can be opened, and Truth can be known. The honesty and scholarly approach to this issue puts their stamp on this book.

From the foreword, by Bishop Leontine T.C.Kelly
