wfn.org | Second publication of Church guide to homosexuality

["EAUK Press Office" <press@eauk.org>]

For Immediate Release:  17th August 1998

The much-publicised report on homosexuality and the Church
produced in January by the Evangelical Alliance's Commission for
Unity and Truth among Evangelicals (ACUTE) in January, has been
re-published as part of a new arrangement which will see all of
ACUTE's major reports published by Paternoster Publishing.

As a result of the agreement, Faith Hope and Homosexuality will
now be available for sale in Christian bookshops around the
country, as will future ACUTE reports.  The report costs œ4.99
and is also available direct from Paternoster on 01228-512512.

Rev Dr David Hilborn, theological secretary to the Evangelical
Alliance and the co-ordinator of ACUTE, said: "The agreement
between ACUTE and Paternoster is good news for the Church as it
means that the major work done by ACUTE on key issues can be made
available to a much wider readership."

Mark Finnie, editorial manager of Paternoster Publishing
commented: "Many books claim to represent the biblical position. 
ACUTE has brought together writers and thinkers from across
evangelicalism to provide carefully researched digests and
introductions to critical issues.  Paternoster is delighted to
have this opportunity to work with the Evangelical Alliance on
this series."

Faith Hope and Homosexuality has been praised for upholding the
traditional biblical stance on homosexual, while calling on
Christians to support those with a homosexual orientation who are
striving to live out a celibate faithful lifestyle in accordance
with biblical teaching.
