About this listen

Churches in America are experiencing an unprecedented fracturing due to their belief and attitude toward the LGBTQ community. Armed with only six passages in the Bible - often known as the "clobber passages" - the traditional Christian position has been one that stands against the full inclusion of our LGBTQ brothers and sisters. UnClobber reexamines each of those frequently quoted passages of Scripture, alternating with author Colby Martin's own story of being fired from an evangelical megachurch when they discovered his stance on sexuality.

UnClobber reexamines what the Bible says (and does not say) about homosexuality in such a way that breathes fresh life into outdated and inaccurate assumptions and interpretations.

The narration unfortunately was painfully stilted and slow. The background story was also very wordy and long winded. However, as suggested at the beginning by the author, you can read every other chapter to get the Bible study that was well worth reading and avoid the authors detailed personal journey

helpful but skip every other chapter

It goes into depth thinking about logistics and puts things into a well balanced spotlight for Christians on both sides of the divide.

Really good study book
