The worst homophobia I have experienced in my life has been within the paranormal community. I have been threatened to be outed several times over the years, which I found amusing because anyone who truly knew me was aware that I came out at 29. I considered my sexuality a non-topic and something that was

Talking about Jesus and his sexual orientation can be an eye-opening conversation—one that often sparks curiosity, discomfort, or even resistance. But what if we put aside our preconceptions for a moment and simply explore the idea? Not to be provocative, but to reflect on what we believe and why. Some scholars and theologians argue that

“You are safe with me.” Those are words that matter a lot right now, especially when we’re surrounded by so much hate and fear. It’s tough for some folks to remember what it was like when our government was actively against us, when simply being who you are put you in danger. They might not

The recent removal of trans identities from the National Park Service page for the Stonewall monument is a troubling instance of historical revisionism that undermines the contributions of Marsha P.

I’m not sure how much longer I’ll be on Facebook. If you want to keep up with me, you can find me on BlueSky, Substack, and my personal blog. It’s only a matter of time before my voice is silenced here, and I know I’m not alone in this. Censorship on Facebook isn’t just happening—it’s

This a serious question about homophobia. If you are going to hate us at least have a good reason, but first this. In so many ways, our life as a gay married couple is just like any other marriage. We wake up, eat breakfast, and get to work in our office. We take a lunch

To those reading this in 2025, I write with a heaviness in my heart and soul that feels both familiar and newly urgent. The past nine years have tested our collective resolve as an LGBTQ+ community in ways many of us feared but dared not fully imagine. With the return of Donald Trump to the
