Download Single, Gay, Christian: A Personal Journey of Faith and Sexual Identity AudioBook Free
Let's make a offer, me and you. Let's make offers to each other. I promise to tell you my story. The complete story. I'll tell you about a boy in love with Jesus, who, at the fateful onset of puberty, became aware his sexual destinations were persistently and exclusively for other folks. I'll tell you how I lay on my foundation in the center of the night time and whispered to myself what I've whispered 1000 times since: "I'm homosexual." I'll demonstrate the entire world through my eyes. I'll tell you what it's prefer to belong nowhere. To learn that a lot of my Religious family will forever consider me unnatural, dangerous, because of something that seems as involuntary as my attention color. And to know that a lot of the LGBTQ community that shares my experience as a intimate minority will disagree with just how I've chosen to interpret the call of Jesus, believing I've bought into a tragic, archaic ritual of self-hatred. But I promise my tale won't all be sadness and loneliness and have difficulties. I'll tell you good stuff, too, hopeful things, funny things, like enough time I accidentally arrived to my best friend during his bachelor get together. I'll tell you what it believed like the very first time someone appeared me in the eyes and said, "You aren't a blunder." I'll tell you that joy and sorrow aren't opposites, that my life hasn't been more beautiful than when it was most brokenhearted. If you'll hear, I promise I'll tell you everything, and you can choose for yourself what you would like to believe about me.
