Taking a Chance on God explores how lesbians and gay men can claim both a positive gay identity and a fulfilling life of Christian faith.

McNeill draws on the insights of the gay and lesbian liberation movement, his counseling experience with lesbian and gay people, and a variety of faith traditions–Catholic, mainstream Protestant, Evangelical and other world religions–to produce a unique, comprehensive, life-giving ethic.
–Equal Time

“Taking a Chance on God offers insights into human relationships and human health from which all persons, whether homosexual or heterosexual, can learn.”
–America
