Adam’s Gift: A Memoir of a Pastor’s Calling to Defy the Church’s Persecution of Lesbians and Gays
We will be starting a new book Adam’s Gift: A Memoir of a Pastor’s Calling to Defy the Church’s Persecution of Lesbians and Gays by Jimmy Creech (former Fairmont pastor) on Monday, December 2 at noon via Zoom. Facilitated by Michelle Riley. Please bring discussion questions.
“Jimmy Creech is a man who puts his life where his Gospel is! His amazing journey, as told in his memoir, is the story of a follower of Christ who, like Christ, risked his own life and ministry for the sake of the marginalized and scorned. The LGBT community will forever owe him a debt for his sacrifice and his witness to the love of God for ALL of God’s children.” - Bishop Gene Robinson, Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire (from back of the book)
