Więcej o książce
In an age where society and the church struggle with the existence of gay Christians, Greg Coles shares his personal journey. He invites readers to a mutual promise: he will reveal his entire story. He recounts his experience as a boy deeply in love with Jesus, who, upon reaching puberty, realized his exclusive attractions were toward other boys. Coles reflects on the moments of self-acceptance, recalling the countless times he whispered, "I'm gay." He paints a vivid picture of feeling like he belongs nowhere, facing rejection from parts of his Christian family who view him as unnatural, while also feeling misunderstood by some in the LGBTQ community who disagree with his interpretation of faith. Yet, his narrative isn’t solely about struggle; it includes moments of joy, humor, and hope, such as the time he accidentally came out to his best friend at a bachelor party. He shares the profound impact of being told, "You are not a mistake," and emphasizes that joy and sorrow can coexist, revealing that his life is most beautiful when it is at its most brokenhearted. Through his story, he invites readers to form their own beliefs about him.
