Beschreibung
Retrieving a Rich Understanding of Spiritual Friendship. "Courageous and thought provoking. This is a book that challenges all of us-whatever our sexual experience or longings may be-to think more truthfully about the meaning of love and the complex ways in which our communities either stifle or nurture it. "-Richard B. Hays. , Duke Divinity School"Remarkable. Here is a book everyone interested in Christianity, and everyone interested in friendship, can profit from reading. "-Alan Jacobs. , Honors College, Baylor University"An elegant, theologically rich plea on behalf of the love of friendship that uncovers fresh ways to improvise on a lost Christian tradition of committed spiritual friendship. "-Peter Leithart. , president, Theopolis Institute, Birmingham, Alabama"Honest and poignant, Spiritual Friendship. is like a conversation with a good friend who has learned much from books but more from loving and being loved by others. "-Eve Tushnet. , author of Gay and Catholic: Accepting My Sexuality, Finding Community, Living My Faith. "Love is the most complicated thing in the world-and even more so for gay and lesbian Christians who have experienced a vocation to celibacy. Hill's is a voice that needs to be heard. "-Benjamin Myers. , Charles Sturt University, Sydney, Australia"Hill not only wants to think about what friendship might mean for a celibate gay Christian but indeed wants to recover a richer, more substantive, and especially more promising understanding of friendship for everyone. "-Paul J. Wadell. , St. Norbert College; author of Becoming Friends: Worship, Justice, and the Practice of Christian Friendship. "Hill gives us a glimpse of what we've forgotten-a rich Christian vision of friendship. Whether readers agree or disagree with his theological vision, there is no doubt that this book will be a conversation changer. "-J. Todd Billings. , Western Theological Seminary, Holland, Michigan
