Yeah, I happened to read Yancey's book right around the time I read Robert
Jewett's _Saint Paul Returns to the Movies: Triumph over Shame_, which
also has a chapter on _Babette's Feast_, and the combined impact of those
two books has had a profound effect on my own theological outlook.

For those who haven't dropped out of the homosexuality debate, Yancey's
book also has a chapter on his friendship with Mel White, one of the more
outspoken evangelical homosexuals out there.  Quite interesting.
