BUT
WHAT
ABOUT…
Ten years after the release of his bestselling book, UnClobber, pastor and author Colby Martin is back with a revolutionary follow-up.
Inspired by the earnest questions of those on the journey toward full LGBTQ inclusion, But What About is the next step for those needing more than just an exploration of the clobber passages.
But What About builds a framework for reading the Bible that’s both intellectually honest and spiritually liberating.
Proving that inclusion
is not a departure
from the Christian faith,
but rather its
truest expression.

NOV 17
from St Martin’s Essentials
Even after the Clobber Passages are dealt with, many people still have questions.
Questions that keep them one or two steps shy of becoming fully affirming of LGBTQ people.
These are the questions that flood my inbox and get asked at my events.
I call them the “But What Abouts…”
But what about Adam & Eve?
But what about the Bible?
But what about God creating two genders?
But what about Biblical marriage?
And more…
These are good questions.
Deserving of good responses.
And that’s why I wrote But What About: The Most Asked Questions on Faith, the Bible, and LGBTQ Inclusion.
Because I remain convinced that not only is the Bible not anti-LGBTQ,
but actually,
when taken to its logical conclusion,
following Jesus inevitably leads to full inclusion.
In other words,
Affirming LGBTQ people,
as a Christian,
simply makes sense.
Early Praise for But What About…
“But What About goes beyond the clobber passages into the questions that still linger… the ones that still keep us up at night. This heartfelt and important book gives those questions room to breathe.”
brian recker, bestselling author of hell bent“A brilliant and much needed book! Whether you’re still on the fence about inclusion, already on the journey, or wanting to become a better, more effective ally, But What About is a must read. ”
Matthew paul turner, nyt bestselling picture book author“I know these questions personally, I've lived them. But What About is a much needed addition to the movement toward LGBTQ inclusion in the church, and one we desperately need. Read it, then pass it to someone who needs it too.”
