the meaning of Scripture, Peter Fitch argues that the Bible itself gives many clues as to the appropriate lens with which to read it: love. It is not meant as a rulebook, binding for all generations; rather, it provides an atmosphere for people to meet with and be transformed by a living God. Next, Peter describes his own story of gradually realizing that this truth would lead to a new way of seeing and accepting people with different sexuality. Along the way, he shares the stories of university students and family members, and of a church that wrestled deeply with these issues. He believes that there are times that the heart can be a better theologian than the brain, and that churches would do well to learn to embrace people of different sexuality. Learning to Interpret Toward Love is a theological explanation of why this is a path to a better future.
