NewGrowth Minibooks - Helping Students with Same-Sex Attraction: Guidance for Parents and Youth Leaders

Book Description:

A student sits in your office and shares about his or her struggles with same-sex attraction. Or perhaps it’s your child asking you for help. What can you say or do that will bring the gospel into this struggle?

Cooper Pinson begins by helping parents and youth leaders understand that this struggle is not so very different than their own struggles with sin and suffering that they encounter every day. Then he goes on to give specific, detailed, and practical direction on how to encourage students to go to God and others for hope and help. As you read, you will learn how much we all have in common and how the gospel of Jesus Christ transforms every area of life.
