Gay Marriage

Same-sex attraction is a real experience for some people, and not just because they just decided to become ‘gay’ one day. Sometimes it’s something they’ve struggled with for many years.

From a Christian perspective, every person is valuable and created ‘in the image of God’ whether they struggle with same-sex attraction or not. This incredible concept applies to all human beings regarless of their struggles. A married person struggling with unfaithfulness still has great value, as does a single person wrestling with the appeal of ‘casual sex’.

But does that mean we should do whatever initially appears to make us happy? What are the consequences? If we do choose to make our own rules, what does this mean for the direction of our society and our children’s future?

Mark explored this vital topic in our Saturday Evening Event in April, in a public forum on ‘Gay Marriage’ as part of a series 'Focus on Marriage'.
