This is a great book if you're still evangelical. The audience outside of that is pretty minimal, unless you're trying to convince an evangelical friend to accept gay people without destroying their faith. The arguments the book makes are solid overall, even if there is a certain amount of dancing-around certain obvious readings. It seems to ignore a couple of obvious things about ancient times, namely that women were seen as property and that marriages were business deals as much as "partnerships" or "covenant relationships," etc. But that kind of comes with the territory of evangelicalism. In all, I think this book was solid even though I don't agree fully with its start point (I don't think the bible is inerrant, etc.), but this was a solid read and if nothing else should increase awareness and empathy for a marginalized group within the biggest group in America.
