We Were Baptized Too – Claiming God’s Grace For Lesbians And Gays

We Were Baptized Too – Claiming God’s Grace For Lesbians And Gays (Paperback)

Within the liturgy, congregations pledge to accept, love, forgive, and nurture the newly baptized member. The church, however, often lives out this covenant selectively, forcing its gay/lesbian members into silence, alienation, and doubt. We Were Baptized Too challenges the church to take seriously its understanding of Baptism and Communion as a means of grace, justice, and liberation.
