Godly But Gay

​

That's the title of my book.  it will be a collection of essays and stories of my life ranging from my conservative, religious upbringing to my experiences in ministry and ex-gay therapy to my coming out.  

 

When I mention the title it isn't unsual for people to respond with, "Joel, that title should read Godly AND Gay!"  I agree that it SHOULD read that way, but the reality is in the religious world I was in the two words could not be used together.  The dilemma was real.  The title represents the conflict that so many in the faith community experience.

The book is a work in progress.  Stay tuned here for details about publication and sales.
