Nicknamed \"God Boy\" by his peers, he knew that he was called to a life in the evangelical Christian ministry. But Lee harbored a secret: He also knew that he was gay. In this groundbreaking book, Lee recalls the events--his coming out to his parents, his experiences with the \"ex-gay\" movement, and his in-depth study of the Bible--that led him, eventually, to self-acceptance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But more than just a memoir, TORN provides insightful, practical guidance for all committed Christians who wonder how to relate to gay friends or family members--or who struggle with their own sexuality. Convinced that \"in a culture that sees gays and Christians as enemies, gay Christians are in a unique position to bring peace,\" Lee demonstrates that people of faith on both sides of the debate can respect, learn from, and love one another.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This description refers to a 2012 edition of the book.","brand":"Jericho Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44894667276517,"sku":"NP9781455514311","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/2e30a232-f1cd-4b0f-8d28-ab00006b7d59.jpg?v=1767917006","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/torn-isbn-9781455514311","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
