Talking Across Difference
If you're looking for a quick and easy read, this is not your book. However if you're wanting to consider the issues around the full inclsuion of gay and lesbian people in the Anglican Communion this is a balanced and thoughtful exposition.
Unfortunately its so thoughtful that it can become dull quite quickly. I recommend reading it in small portions and even better, reading it in a group. The chapter on Listening provides some useful resources for groups meeting to consider difficult issues.
