Faith Autopsy is a deep dive into what happens when we lay our beliefs about LGBTQ+ people on the table next to real lives and the life of Jesus. Part memoir, part Bible study, and part pastoral guide, it walks through the “clobber texts,” shows how to read Scripture in context, and builds a positive, Christ-centered sexual ethic grounded in covenant, consent, honesty, and non-exploitation. Along the way, it tells the story of a gay Christian learning to love God and like himself, and offers concrete practices for churches, families, and individuals who want their theology to bear good fruit.
