Ministry in the New Marriage Culture

Same-sex marriage is here.

So what do pastors and church leaders do now?

Churches are now faced with ministry dilemmas unknown to any previous generation. Hoping the problem goes away isn’t a reasonable strategy.  Christians must answer difficult questions about ministering both to couples in same-sex marriages and all the people impacted by those unions.

Jeff Iorg, a seminary president and experienced pastor, has assembled some of the leading voices on a range of topics from children’s ministry to preaching to legal issues in the new marriage culture. Readers will be equipped, perhaps for the first time, with practical answers to some of these complex questions.

Dr. Jeff Iorg is president of Golden Gate Seminary in California.  He holds three degrees in Bible and Missions and has served as a church planter, pastor, and ministry executive on the West Coast for more than 25 years.  Among his other books are Seasons of a Leader’s Life, The Painful Side of Leadership, and The Case for Antioch.  Dr. Iorg blogs and provides leadership resources at www.jeffiorg.com.
