How can we lovingly decline attending my sister’s lesbian wedding?

Question from a reader:

My sister, who is a lesbian, invited me to her wedding. I have been the “black sheep” of the family because I am a Christian. We want to show grace and love but we also stand firm in not attending. We don’t know how to decline in a way they won’t hate us and exclude us from the family. How do we decline lovingly?

Waiting to Get Married?

“Should we get married?” Few questions deserve more careful attention. When dreamy-eyed recklessness yanks people into marriage, the end is often conflict, disillusionment, separation, and divorce, or at best, a second-rate marriage.

Do you think it is possible that on the New Earth there could be the essence of marital relationships with the actual institution of marriage?

I still can’t get around Christ’s words in Matthew 22, which seem to clearly refute the Sadducee’s assumptions that if there were a resurrection, it would mean marital partnerships from earth would carry over to the resurrected life, and therefore people would have multiple spouses.
