A family member recently came out as gay and this has been incredibly difficult for him. I am confused on how to respond to him in a Christian way. What should I do?</p> <p>2. A friend of mine is thinking of starting his own church and installing himself as the pastor. Is this something we should be comfortable with?</p> <p>3. Does the Bible mean something entirely different to its original audience than it does for me?</p> <p>4. Does Christianity require a dress code?</p> <p>5.
