* What’s a winsome way to respond to a relative or friend who enthusiastically tells you their child recently married in a same-sex marriage?
* I won’t be attending my cousin’s same-sex wedding, but would not sending a gift be unnecessary and rude?
* Is there any merit to Christians withdrawing from “the world” and congregating together in their own areas for the purpose of safety and having shared community standards?
