Orthodox Tradition and Human Sexuality

It presents both academic and pastoral reflections on sex, seeking to open up the conversation about homosexuality and sexual diversity within Orthodox Christianity, aiming to create an agora for discussing the sexualities that are often thought of as untraditional.
