Resumen del Editor
The New York Times best-selling author of The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything and Jesus: A Pilgrimage turns his attention to the relationship between LGBT Catholics and the church in this loving, inclusive, and revolutionary book.
On the day after the Orlando nightclub shooting, James Martin SJ posted a video on Facebook in which he called for solidarity with our LGBT brothers and sisters. "The largest mass shooting in US history took place at a gay club, and the LGBT community has been profoundly affected," he began. He then implored his fellow Catholics - and people everywhere - to "stand not only with the people of Orlando but also with their LGBT brothers and sisters." A powerful call for tolerance, acceptance, and support - and a reminder of Jesus' message for us to love one another - Father Martin's post went viral and was viewed more than 1.6 million times.
Now Martin expands on his reflections in this moving and inspiring book, offering a powerful, loving, and much-needed voice in a time marked by anger, prejudice, and divisiveness. Adapted from an address he gave to New Ways Ministry, a group that ministers to and advocates for LGBT Catholics, Building a Bridge provides a road map for repairing and strengthening the bonds that unite all of us as God's children. Martin uses the image of a two-way bridge to enable LGBT Catholics and the church to come together in a call to end the "us" versus "them" mentality. Turning to the catechism, he draws on the three criteria at the heart of the Christian ministry - "respect, compassion, and sensitivity" - as a model for how the Catholic Church should relate to the LGBT community.

Many of us do not trust our own thoughts, feelings, and desires when it comes to discerning God's will. Instead we look outside ourselves to determine what God wants from and for us. In God's Voice Within, spiritual director Mark E. Thibodeaux, SJ, shows us how to use Ignatian discernment to access our own spiritual intuition and understand that the most trustworthy wisdom of all comes not from outside sources, but from God working through us.

The Seven Storey Mountain is the extraordinary spiritual testament of Thomas Merton (1915-1968), a man who experienced life to its fullest in the world before entering a Trappist monastery. By the end of his life, he had become one of the 20th century's best-known and beloved Christian voices. This autobiography deals...not with what happens to a man, but what happens inside his soul.

As a teenager and young man, Justin Lee felt deeply torn. Nicknamed "God Boy" by his peers, he knew that he was called to a life in the evangelical Christian ministry. But Lee harbored a secret: He also knew that he was gay. In this groundbreaking book, Lee recalls the events - his coming out to his parents, his experiences with the "ex-gay" movement, and his in-depth study of the Bible - that led him, eventually, to self-acceptance. But more than just a memoir, Torn provides insightful, practical guidance for all committed Christians who wonder how to relate to gay friends or family members - or who struggle with their own sexuality.

Yet many believers are not familiar with the three major forms of prayer and the three stages of spiritual growth that exist to bring them closer to God. In his most personal book yet, Brant Pitre, PhD, draws on the riches of the Bible, the words of Jesus, and the writings of mystics across the centuries to shed light on the mystery - and wonder - of the spiritual life.

Do I Stay Christian? addresses in public the powerful question that surprising numbers of people—including pastors, priests, and other religious leaders—are asking in private. Picking up where Faith After Doubt leaves off, Do I Stay Christian? is not McLaren's attempt to persuade Christians to dig in their heels or run for the exit. Instead, he combines his own experience with that of thousands of people who have confided in him over the years to help readers make a responsible, honest, ethical decision about their religious identity.

Whether it’s the Christmas and Easter Christians or the faithful church attenders whose hearts are cold toward the Lord, we’ve all encountered cultural Christians. They’d check the Christian box on a survey, they’re fine with church, but the truth is, they’re far from God. So how do we bring Jesus to this overlooked mission field? The Unsaved Christian equips you to confront cultural Christianity with honesty, compassion, and grace, whether you’re doing it from the pulpit or the pews.

In this groundbreaking book featuring new survey research of evangelicals and their relationship to the age of outrage, Ed Stetzer offers a constructive way forward.

Historia
Best-selling author John Ortberg shares how Jesus' influence has swept over history and how his vision of life continues to impact humanity today. Jesus' impact on our world is highly unlikely, widely inescapable, largely unknown, and decidedly double-edged. It is unlikely in light of the severe limitations of his earthly life; it is inescapable because of the range of impact; it is unknown because history doesn't connect dots; and it is doubled-edged because his followers have wreaked so much havoc, often in his name.

It's exciting when someone has a living encounter with the God of the universe. A lightbulb goes on, and everything feels new. But with that sense of exhilaration comes the realization: in order to take one's faith seriously, things must change. An encounter with Jesus is a very significant experience, and Fr. Dave and Deacon Ralph show readers how to move from discovering their faith to following Jesus wherever he leads them along the path of discipleship.

We are in the midst of a paradigm shift in the church. Not since the Reformation five centuries ago have so many Christians come together to ask whether the church is in sync with their deepest beliefs and commitments. These believers range from evangelicals to mainline Protestants to Catholics, and the person who best represents them is author and pastor Brian McLaren. In this much anticipated book, McLaren examines ten questions facing today's church - questions about how to articulate the faith itself, the nature of its authority, who God is....

By contesting long-held cultural paradigms, this book equips you to see how sexuality is rooted in the broader context of God's heart and his work for us on earth.

Historia
In this vital, eye-opening book, best-selling author Ed Silvoso digs into Scripture, unearthing Jesus' true design for his church - his Ekklesia. He shows how the early church was a radical, countercultural force of people who transformed the hostile, pagan places in which they lived. Here Dr. Silvoso shows how we, in the midst of the social, economic, political, and moral chaos in our world today, can once again become the revolutionary, transformational, life-giving Ekklesia Jesus called us to be.

Thank you for remembering us
Your book has given me strength and self respect. Even today some ridicule and humiliate me, but all I wanted to do was pray and connect with my Lord. It wasn't easy at all! I wish I had your book many years ago.

A fair request
Fr Martin utilizes scripture and personal experience to set a foundation for respectful dialog between the Catholic Church and the LGBTQIA community. However, I do not find a great deal of hope for acceptance and true transformation of that relationship in his conclusions.

Worth a read. Important topic.
Essentially the essay I read a while ago by Father Martin. Great insight and compassion. I'd imagine that LGBT Catholics may find it weak sauce, but it's a thoughtful general audience book.

A MUST READ
All Catholic and people in general should read this book. Many Catholic parents have probably thought they had to choose between leaving their religion or rejecting their children. This book offers much hope.

Insightful and Provoking
Father Martin addresses an issue that has for too long been ignored and a group that continues to be vilified. He reminds us to act like Jesus and minister to the marginalized.

I do love the Jesuits and wish I was a couple of years younger to join the brothers.
Again not surprising an open mind. The book has added to my ministry working with LGBT police and fire officers.

With Respect, Compassion, and Sensitivity
I have followed the Pope (in Latin and English!) on Twitter for years, even before Pope Francis became Pontifex. I’m Catholic but non-practicing, and a graduate of a Catholic University. When things are scary and out of control, I still look to the Church for comfort. I found and followed Father James Martin, SJ, on Twitter, after the June 12, 2016, Pulse Nightclub Massacre in Orlando, Florida. His words were comforting then, and they still are.
“Building a Bridge: ow the Catholic Church and the LGBT Community Can Enter Into a Relationship of Respect, Compassion and Sensitivity” (2017) is the beginning of the use of the Catechism of the Catholic Church to support the lives and the faith of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered, Queer or Questioning and their Allies. I am using the term “beginning” because I think it’s a very good start for a stronger, more inclusive and diverse Church. There will be more to come.
In his introduction, Father Martin explains that he uses the term “LGBT” not to exclude, but because that’s what's in common use at this time. The first part of the book is addressed to the Church and its outreach to the LGBT community. “Jesus recognizes all people, even those who seem invisible in the greater community . . . Catholics therefore have a responsibility to make everyone feel visible and valuable.” The second part of the book is addressed to LGBT persons, and asks for patience, understanding and forgiveness. Importantly, Father Martin acknowledges the sense of betrayal many LGBT people felt and still feel. Helpfully for non-Catholics, Father Martin includes a brief discussion of the structure of the Church and why something said by a priest in a homily may not be Church doctrine.
The book is quite practical. It has specific suggestions for people to talk to each other about these important issues. There’s a study section, with scriptures and suggested questions to meditate on, and talk about. It’s a way to open a dialogue, which is what Father Martin wants.
What this book does not do is either support or condemn same sex marriage; question the Church’s teachings; discuss sexual morality; argue for a change in Church doctrine; or undermine the authority of any person in a position of authority in the Church, from parish priests at individual parishes to the Holy Father.
Father Martin narrates the book, and he is quite good.
[If this review helped, please press YES. Thanks!]
