"Our brothers and sisters who experience same-sex attraction are
saddled with a heavy cross. Fr. Schmitz understands the struggle of
the individual and brings Christ to them, with His promise of an
easy yoke and light burden. When others would muddy the waters of
Our Lord's love for all, Fr. Schmitz's book filters the pure and
renewing love of God for those who experience same-sex attraction
and helps their loved ones understand this particular
struggle."
--Curtis Martin, Founder & CEO, FOCUS "The Church has been
desperately waiting for a book that addresses same-sex attraction
in an orthodox way that is also accessible, kind, and
compassionate, a book you'd feel comfortable handing to any person,
whether Catholic or atheist, gay or straight. Well, finally we have
that book! Made for Love should be considered the new go-to book on
Catholicism and homosexuality. Get it, read it, share it and remind
the world that God's plan for human sexuality is not a senseless
burden but the surest path to joy!"
--Brandon Vogt, Founder of ClaritasU, Author, RETURN: How to Draw
Your Child Back to the Church "In a culture that confuses love with
moral relativism, many people have difficulties with the Church's
teaching on homosexuality. "We should just love people," they say.
Fr. Schmitz helps us approach this topic with compassion and
clarity, showing how the Church's teaching on this topic is all
about love. We are made from love, by love, and for love. And if we
want to love the people in our lives, we must share this truth with
them so they can experience the authentic, lasting love for which
God made them."
--Edward Sri, Author, Whom Am I to Judge?
