Personal Stories
The journey to acceptance isn’t always easy, but you’re not alone. Explore the stories of parents, children, and allies as they share their journeys of love, faith, and affirmation—walking the path together with hope and courage.
A Journey of Awakening
Mark Twain said, “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.”
My Gradual Evolution Toward Full Affirmation
Privilege is something you may not be aware you have if you’re part of the “in-group.” I’m a cisgender, straight white male, so I know I have privilege in my culture. It took me years to figure that out, though. But if you’re paying attention, life has a way of teaching you lessons.
Finding My Way Back to Love
I finally saw myself as a child of God—not just a hollow tool, only valuable if used in the service of ministry…I belonged in His presence, just as I was.
Finding Hope in Allies
It is good to remember that we have staunch allies who are opposed to the politics of hatred.
