Ashley Hardingham 
Discerning Inclusion [EPUB ebook] 
How an Evangelical Church Had the Conversation about LGBT+ Inclusion

Sokongan

Increasing numbers of evangelical churches are now considering the question of the inclusion of those from LGBT+ communities, not only as attenders, but as involved and committed members and leaders. Previously, little has existed in terms of guidance regarding any kind of roadmap for how to have this conversation. Discerning Inclusion addresses this need, giving the reader an accessible, honest, and practical model for how to have the conversation and what to expect on the way.
Ashley Hardingham presents an account of how the church he leads had the crucial conversation about whether they might welcome and fully include those from LGBT+ communities. The book approaches the question from the position of a church leader and leadership team who, while apprehensive about formal engagement with the issue, considered it essential. He explores the precipitating reasons for the conversation and how the process evolves. The book is candid about the inevitable challenges and criticisms that can come, but also suggests how they might be responded to and how the conversation can be completed. This is a warts and all, frank assessment of both the cost and the fruit of having such a conversation, leaving the reader informed and equipped about what might be achieved.
