Heavy Burdens: Seven Ways LGBTQ Christians Experience Harm in the Church by Bridget Eileen Rivera

challenging inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

Bridget Eileen Rivera is incredibly thoughtful and intelligent on every page. I really appreciated how she examines harmful cultural "Christian" teachings about LGBTQ people and shows how they contradict core gospel truths, while calling straight and queer Christians into a community oriented toward Christ. Her focus on the Gospel (truly that Jesus is the one saving us, not our efforts) is refreshing and inspiring. Everyone should read this book.
