Homosexuality and the Bible (ASE)

  • Four Articles provided by the Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Church.

What does the Bible really say about homosexuality?  Beyond bringing comfort, hope, healing, and redemption to many… the Bible has (too often) been used as a weapon to inflict pain and cause separation.  This course, taught by Rev. Dr. Brent Hawkes, will help you decide for yourself what this enduring book of wisdom has to say about you, God, love and life.  Please watch our schedule for our next course which is taught throughout the year.
