Two weeks ago we began our bi-weekly Bible Study, What Does the Bible Say About Gay? We discussed the story of Sodom and Gomorrah and tried to dig through several thousand years of cultural shifts and changing language to see what this story really teaches – whether it’s about two ancient cities that were destroyed because they were full of gay men pursuing peaceful, mutually fulfilling relationships… or whether there is something more to see.

If you’d like to poke through the outline and notes from our study about Sodom and Gomorrah, you can download them here.

This Thursday (October 15), after we chat about what we studied last week, we’ll delve into the Old Testament Law. Several thousand years ago, when the Jews were compiling their rules for holy living, somebody (and we’re not exactly sure who) said it was an “abomination” for a “man to lie with a man like he lies with a woman.” (Leviticus 18:22 and Leviticus 20:13)

What does it mean to be an abomination? Do these scriptures condemn homosexuality as we see it in contemporary society? If we take scripture seriously – and at CCfB we do take scripture seriously – we must wrestle with these issues and decide… What Does the Bible Say About Gay?

Join us this Thursday at Tom and Regina’s. Learn something. Teach something. Be challenged by something.

The fun starts at 7:30. Email us at ccfb.biblestudy@gmail.com for directions.
