...so...one of the biggest things that has been on my mind and heart lately.

I grew up in the christian movement...and was subsequently taught that homosexuality is a sin. Last year I spent an amount of time serving as youth pastor in a very small church. Out of my 25 students I had 5 that were either practicing homosexuals/bi-sexual or very confused about their sexual identity. It was at this point that several of my presuppositions about the Bible's perspective on homosexuality were confronted. Since that time I have really been trying to come to grips with this idea of a person's sexual orientation and whether or not it is a sin.

as it stands right now, I'm leaning towards the perspective that what we view as homosexuality is NOT considered a sin in the bible.

what do you think?
