Product Description:

The author of this practical and liberating book has many years of experience in the spiritual direction of gays and lesbians. To be gay or lesbian, he says, is to have received a special blessing from God. Spiritual directors, by recognizing and encouraging the homosexual giftedness of their directees, are calling them out of their tombs -- an echo of the cry of Jesus, as the still-bound Lazarus emerges from the darkness of the tomb: "Unbind him and let him go!" Spiritual Direction and the Gay Person is intended for spiritual directors and counselors who work with gay men and women. Original and much needed, and neither prescriptive nor advocating any particular position on civil rights or a particular denomination or faith group, this book will assist homosexuals in relationships, prayer, liturgy, and in the problems produced by their commitment to or rejection of institutional religion.
