Loving on the edge: A Story of Forbidden Love in the Church

Loving on the edge – a story of forbidden love in the church examines critical issues that affect
christians worldwide and looks at how love, romance and sexuality are dealt with in churches in the 21st
century.

How does religion affect and influence finding a spouse? Can black and white relationships survive in an environment that preaches love, yet in practice, most christians marry within their own race. This exciting and dramatic love story, set in a large and successful Pentecostal church in the UK, forces the church to deal with these issues when the black Pastor’s daughter falls for a non-christian. What happens when the person that she falls for is white? How will the church react? What are the rules for this situation and how should it be handled? How is racial prejudice dealt with on both sides? What will the Pastor do?

This intriguing story of “Loving on the edge” causes a storm that blows through the entire congregation and brings it to the brink of disaster. Set in 2007, this love story, filled with romance and controversy, is based on real life issues that face many churches today.

Written by Ewan Denny, the author of the highly acclaimed “The Marketing of Jesus Christ” Loving on the Edge shows how single christians can be caught up in unfortunate situations and how the lack of counselling for singles can lead to major problems for the individuals concerned and for churches.
