Since 1972, The United Methodist Church has struggled with a variety of understandings of homosexuality as it relates to who we are as faithful Christians. Recently, church legislators strongly encouraged its agency on Christian Unity and Interreligious Concerns to develop resources that help United Methodists talk with civility about their different views of homosexuality in an open atmosphere where unity and understanding could grow. Can we talk...? features two DVDs containing hours of presentations and personal stories and a CD filled with a wealth of materials designed to get church members talking.
