Sinopsis:

Reseña del editor: Over Coffee, is a narrative piece couched in the coffee-house conversation between the author and a small-town pastor concerning a gay church member who desires to be partnered in the church. Over Coffee warmly introduces the reader to a conservative, faith-based dialogue for providing room on the pew in today's most conservative churches for gay partnered persons. Over Coffee brings an uncommonly informative bridge for two otherwise seemingly opposing audiences. Over Coffee brings to the table two respective views, and dispels the polarizing stance from which they are customarily positioned. This is done so within a conservative context that embraces biblical relevance and conservative faith tenets, while presenting a case for holding gay partnership within a similar framework in which the Bible embraces any other human condition. Having been raised in the conservative church and having studied to be a conservative minister at Northwest University and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Thompson brings a discerning understanding of the conservative mind, biblical faith, and framework on this vital issue.
