Episode 86: The Bible, the church and same-sex relationships (Rubel Shelly)

The Christian Chronicle Podcast

Almost one year before he recorded this episode, Rubel Shelly appeared on Episode 39 of The Christian Chronicle Podcast to talk about his book, Male and Female God Created Them: A Biblical Review of LGBTQ+ Claims. That remains the most popular episode of this show.
Shelly returns to talk about his follow-up work, The Ink is Dry: God's Distinctive Word on Marriage, Family and Sexual Responsibility.
Framing human relationships and sexuality as aspects of Christian discipleship, Shelly explains how biblical and historical sources support his argument that marriage and sex between one man and one woman is God's design and intent.
But rather than try to punish or shun those in the LGBTQ+ community (or legislate against them through government), Shelly makes a biblical case for compassion, friendship, love, and patience.
