Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 For me, going to college in Kansas was a relief. I felt like I could be myself there. But when I started to think about coming out to my family and friends, I realized that not everyone would understand.

#2 I felt sick after going to the store and buying the Bible. I had always been extremely connected to my church, but I was now faced with the prospect of losing my faith in God.

#3 My father, who was a pastor, wanted me to change my sexual orientation. He heard of groups that claimed to change people from gay to straight, and he asked me to read some books he had borrowed from our church on the subject. I was skeptical, but I read them.

#4 I had a hard time understanding why the Bible condemned homosexuality, as I couldn’t find any evidence that it was harmful to anyone. I couldn’t understand why the church would condemn something that didn’t seem harmful.
