Gettin' Real


Things are starting to get real. I have been getting all the paperwork to transfer to the ECUSA. I could convince myself that his was just a bad dream until now. Now I have to face the fact that yes, because I am gay, I must leave my call and go somewhere else.

I still struggle with the question: Why doesn't the church that I love, love me? Why must I deny what I am to stay a servant of Christ?

I've struggled with these very same questions: "Why doesn't the church that I love, love me? Why must I deny what I am to stay a servant of Christ?"

I was a gay religious monk in the Catholic Church for many years. I write about it in the new book, 'Seventy Times Seven.'

I'm happy to say that I've been able to reconcile my spirituality with my sexuality, with MCC playing a major role.
