Unquenchable Love

“Unquenchable Love is, besides being a very rich, thorough, and balanced study, primarily a book with a broad scope. René Erwich and Almatine Leene do not shy away from controversial topics or insights that question classic Christian positions. The authors themselves are also constantly willing to be surprised by their own findings. As a result, it never becomes frenetic, but is rather a book that, above all, expresses a lot of pleasure. Perhaps most importantly, Unquenchable Love is a book in which LGBTQ+ Christians can feel safe.”


—Mariecke van den Berg, professor of feminism and Christianity, Radboud University Nijmegen





“Unquenchable Love is a timely, well-written, and well-researched companion for one’s own or one’s church’s discernment regarding gender, sexuality, and relationships. Authored by scholars with pastoral and educational experience, it offers substantial insight and encouraging pointers to develop one’s own attitude. I am sure that it will serve many readers well, both when it comes to understanding the subject matter and to growing in a substantiated and charitable spirituality.”
