homosexuality.”

Reviews
“Martin
has written that book. The one you give your friend—the friend who knows that
inclusion is the only path forward but keeps getting told, ‘but the Bible says.
. . .’ In his fresh and accessible way, Martin shows what the Bible actually
says—clearing up all sorts of confusion along the way.”
-Rob
Bell, New York Times best-selling author of Love
Wins
“UnClobber
combines thoughtful theological study with a compelling pastoral memoir to
create a powerful progressive Christian manifesto. This is a call for all
Christians to love better and without condition.”
-Kristen
Howerton, author of Rage Against the Minivan
“Martin’s
insight, winsome spirit, and passion have come together to create a book that I
not only love but am proud to share with those whom I love. UnClobber
is a great gift for all who are seeking deeper understanding, faith, and
compassion.”
-Doug
Pagitt, pastor, author, and co-founder of Vote Common Good
“Written
with a theologian’s intelligence and a pastor’s sensitivity, this book is the
resource thousands have been waiting for.”
-Brian
McLaren, author and activist
“Martin
shows us that he’s not only a thoughtful theologian, but also perfectly
displays the beauty of his humanness by sharing vulnerably about his own story
in the only way he knows how: with honesty, humor and grace. A profoundly important book!”
-Candice
Czubernat, therapist, writer, and founder of The Christian Closet
