This pioneering study explores the evolution of thought within Judaism, Christianity, and Islam in regard to their perspectives of gender identity and sexuality. Using a theoretical approach, the author makes use of a phenomenological paradigm and employs a hermeneutic method to analyze the research data. The study was conducted in an effort to uncover ways in which reconciliation can take place between the LGBTQ community and faith-based communities without the compromise of religious convictions. This book offers a holistic approach in which the clinical profession can help aide and encourage the reconciliation process between the LGBTQ community and faith-based communities. Further, this study addresses the individual needs of members within both communities, understanding the ethical, professional, spiritual, and sociological variables that they encounter. This book is a much needed resource for mental health clinicians and is the first of its kind that specifically recognizes the role of pastoral counseling within this process.
