Books:

The following works by the Rev. Justin Cannon are extremely helpful for members of the LGBTQ community - Orthodox or not. The first work is Homosexuality in the Orthodox Church and the second is The Bible, Christianity, & Homosexuality. I highly recommend both works.

Please follow the amazon links to order the books.
