LGBT Booklist
I recently hosted an LGBT Group meeting at church on what books I might recommend to people looking for something to read about the church and the various sexuality issues that are around at the moment.

Christos Anesti! Alleluia!
Christ is risen for our orthodox friends. The silliness of the churches having two different Easter days bothers me more as the years go by. We waste our time on other silly controversies when the date of Easter remains unresolved. There was a plan some years ago to unite the churches by those who currently…
