About this ebook

Steven Andrews grew up atheist. He's bisexual. He was a foster child. He was abused and neglected. Nonetheless, God came to find him, and he became a college convert to Christianity. He is now a Presbyterian pastor, a nascent counselor, a husband, and a father. None of that was inevitable. This book is the story of how all that came to be. It's a narrative of vulnerability and authenticity. It's a journey through evangelism, queer identity, and healing from trauma. It's a plea for the future of the mainline church. Most of all, it's one person sharing their story and encouraging you to share your own--as we all strive to be the people God made us to be.
