5.0 out of 5 stars Must reading for any Christian struggling with homosexuality, 2 Jun 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Desires in Conflict (Paperback)
This book was like looking in a mirror for me. In a tough-love sort of personal way, the author speaks to the reader in the first person, and takes away much, if not all, of the confusion experienced by the Christian who is struggling with the spiritually conflicting desire to love people of the same gender in a way which, according to the Bible, God forbids.

The question, "Why am I this way?" was answered from many avenues as the author shared the growing pains experienced by people whom he has counselled over the years. I found that there are many others out there just like me.

There is a reason we struggle with these desires, and it is not because we were born this way. This book delivers a foundation for solid hope of leaving these desires behind, through Christ, and through healthy relationships. That is what the reader can expect from this book, if he is willing to listen.

This book speaks mostly to men, although there is a section dedicated to women as well. And the author is not just a professional counsellor, he himself is a "struggler."

The Body of Christ would do well also, by reading this book. The Church will never effectively deal with homosexuality in our society, until it learns to deal with it effectively within its own self. Many in the family are wounded and confused, because it simply doesn't know how to help us.

Most Sincerely, Dean

5.0 out of 5 stars Struggler: If you only read one book,read this one., 15 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Desires in Conflict (Paperback)
Joe Dallas has been through it all and is able to speak not only from a strong Biblical and psychological knowledge base, but also from personal experience. Conversationally written directly to the Christian struggling with homosexuality, this book gives powerful encouragement and practical advice. Especially exceptional is his coverage of all aspects of the religious and psychological processes of growth and change. It's easy to read, but may be emotionally and spiritually challenging. This book is also an excellent resource for parents, family members, and church members who seek to understand how they can help the struggler.

1.0 out of 5 stars A dangerous and misleading book, 6 Jul 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Desires in Conflict (Paperback)
'Strugglers' would be better advised to stop 'struggling', and accept their sexuality. This book is just one of many which offers psychological creedence to suppression of sexuality, and contributes still further to the homophobia found within the church. In some ways its contents are all the more insidious for its 'caring' language - the message, however, remains the same. To be avoided by anyone who cannot come to terms with their sexuality - there are many gay-affirming books which would be far more helpful. By all means read this book - but make sure you know where it is coming from first.
