Can I Love God and My Gay Son?
When an adult child comes out as gay or transgender, Christian parents are
often caught off guard, grieving and afraid they failed. Rob Jackson, a counselor with Focus on
the Family and author of When Grace Meets Conviction, talks with Dave Stone about how
parents can love God and their child at the same time, and how churches can lead on the issue
without fear.
When Grace Meets Conviction: Loving God and Your LGBT Child is Rob's new book from Focus
on the Family, answering 100 questions drawn from thousands of calls from parents.
