Resource List
This resource list includes a variety of resources that I came across as I worked on this paper. It is in no way intended to be thorough. I have included some other lists of resources which I have included in this appendix, giving credit to the agencies which compiled them. The focus of this paper is not on the treatment of problems, and does not seek to be an exhaustive resource, which would be a huge task. Please peruse this list and others in Appendix 1, but the Internet is obviously a major source of further information about these issues. New material is being written all the time.

Additional from people who attended the PTL conference Oct. 2012
The best biblical-theological work to understand homosexuality is Robert Gagnon’s The Bible & Homosexual Practice.
Mario Bergner teaches classes on sexuality, particularly how to address same sex attractions. He’s told his own story in his book, Setting Love in Order. Redeemed Lives (RL) is a pastoral course designed to help all people recover from the fall-out of the sexual revolution.
With Mario’s blessing a separate RL-Lite ministry has been developed, Living Waters:
http://desertstream.org/Groups/1000040175/Desert_Stream_Ministries/Who_We_Are/Affiliated_Programs/Living_Waters/Living_Waters.aspx These programs are offered in various places and on video.
