Dear Reverend,


Straight Christian minister meet Straight Christian apologist. Glad to meet you! Thank you for sharing your wonderful story with us!


It’s always good to see a fellow heterosexual standing up for our LGBT brothers and sisters and our faith!


Yours,


Raul

Hi Rev


It is wonderful God has given you this aspect to your ministry and I can’t thank you enough. I am absolutely sure God will use you.


You may be interested to read a great book by Andrew Marin called “Love is an Orientation”. He is straight and God gave him a wonderful ministry to us gay people. It is a good book on how to build bridges between the evangelical church and the gay community. He has had extensive experience in this area and has a real “Jesus” heart.


I was a Baptist Pastor and missionary myself. I was born gay but I have left the church, because of how I was treated over many years. Now I have left the church, I am discovering all these wonderful fruit of the Spirit like love, joy and peace. Life is great.

Very inspirational story. I much enjoyed reading it. I am glad you were able to build some bridges between religion and sexuality. I highly doubt that homosexuals would be so likely to destroy religion if more religions accepted homosexuality.

Thanks for the encouragement AVB, but I’m not sure I deserve a compliment such as this.

Hey Rev


Great meeting you in person last week. You inspired me in my attempt to chart a life course that can honour the love I have for my wife and and children, whilst being open and out about my sexual orientation.


Thanks for your awesome heart, for us on the fringe of christianity.
