One of the most intellectually, spiritually, & emotionally fascinating stories I've ever read on the subject of coming out to a deeply religious parent. Highlighting a sometimes fraught pathway w compassion, it offers a hope-filled example of how we can come together when anchored by love 🙏❤️🏳️‍🌈

as a preacher’s kid, i was really really moved by this. seeing his father look inward to question what his love for Christ meant while finding out that that love means love for ALL was a really familiar journey. beautifully written.

My dad has been an evangelical pastor for decades. He’s also loved me, his gay son, and gone on a journey that risked everything—his faith, church, job, and entire moral foundation. Today I am so grateful to get to help tell part of his story. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
