Courage to Love - Liturgies for the LGBT community compiled by Geoffrey Duncan

Courage to Love is an anthology of worship materials which allow gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender men and women to affirm their sexuality.  Poems, prayers, stories, litanies, same-sex blessings, marriage ceremonies, celebratory material and eucharistic and baptismal liturgies are all represented.  The pieces engage with a whole range of relevant experiences including peer group pressure, prejudice, abuse (physical and emotional) and the silence of the church.

This is a vital resource for public worship and private devotion in the journey towards total acceptance of men and women regardless of their sexual orientation.  The contributors are from all over the world, and include Richard Kirker, James Alison, Chris Glaser and Bill Kirkpatrick.

"A wonderful and varied collection of writings ---- I hope this anthology will help to change hearts and minds to value the individual and celebrate diversity."  Jenny Broughton, National Co-ordinator FFLAG(Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) UK

"Inn many cases this material has only previously been available through private or obscure sources, and Courage to Love helps put it where it belongs - in the mainstream."  Richard Kirker, General Secretary of the Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement
