After a lifetime of fearing what God and everybody else might think, at the age of 40 I finally cracked and admitted that I'm a gay agnostic, not the straight evangelical I felt I needed to be. So my life came crumbling down around me, but I discovered that the most important things remained. I'm still the dad of four amazing kids. I have the gift of life and each day is a new opportunity to soak it all in and start all over again. I've connected with the things I'm truly passionate about...friendship, travelling, reading, the study of foreign languages. I fight every day to be loving and authentic and figuring out how to untangle life's complexities.
