NO GREATER LOVE:
A Biblical Vision for Friendship

Rebecca McLaughlin is a prolific author. Her books follow a certain formula: a topic of contemporary interest, penetrating cultural analysis, honesty about her own life, brilliant stories – and everything rooted in a careful reading of Scripture.

All these ingredients are reassuringly present in this book. As a Christian who experiences ‘same-sex attraction’ but is married to a man and has children, the author is well qualified to navigate the complex but invaluable world of friendship.
