Sanders new book, &quot;Queer Lessons for Churches on the Straight and Narrow&quot;. &amp;nbsp;Cody encourages us to take a fresh look, not only at the content of issues, but the process by which we address them. Debonee talks with Cody about the book, breaking down the various ways the Church could be learning from the LGBTQ community. &amp;nbsp;We'll talk about ideas around Relationship. Community, Faithfulness, Love, Violence and even Forgiveness.
