In week four of our series called “Sexuality Redeemed: Discovering God's Plan” Andy Arnold offers a pastoral look at the bibles view of homosexuality, the grace that can be found through Jesus Christ, and how the call to sexual holiness throughout the bible is all about becoming reconciled to the image of God that was given to humanity in the garden.

What does the bible say about homosexuality? Is the gospel good news for LGBTQ+ people? Is it sinful to experience same sex temptation?
