An effective church should attract homosexuals! That is, because of the love of Christ, the church should pursue them. And through its exaltation of Christ in preaching, corporate prayer, and worship, the church should attract them. It should also minister the Word to homosexuals in its midst by flushing out the self-deceived, exposing the dishonest, confronting the rebel, offering forgiveness to the guilt-ridden, and giving hope.
[Welch, Edward T., Blame it on the Brain (Presbyterian and Reformed Publishing Co., 1998), pg. 179]
