I live in Los Angeles and work among progressively minded folks (Jesus-following and not). During and since the Proposition 8 vote, I have found a great deal of secular commentary on gay marriage. My response was to do some Bible study, acknowledging that I know very little. Thankfully, Andrew Marin and Lisa Sharon Harper have helped me to think through the different ways a Jesus follower might vote on gay marriage.
As far as I can tell, my generation of social justice Christians (those in our 20s) aren’t sure where to stand on the issue. As a result, I feel like I’m losing relevance; what salt and light do I have to offer in these conversations? Please, Sojourners, consider addressing gay marriage.
