Rehabbing My Faith

by Dave Jackson

As the date for releasing of my book, RISKING GRACE, Loving Our Gay Family and Friends, approached, I realized there was another story about how God had been rehabbing my faith to bring me to a place where I could write such a book. It was scary to undertake the project because emotions--and condemnations--are so intense and widespread. I feared people I cared about would be angry with me, be disappointed in me, and feel like I'd betrayed them.

But I could not deny the situation God had brought to Neta and me in terms of giving us a gay daughter and teaching us how to love her.

The book is the product of that rehabbing. But the blogs tell the behind-the-scenes story of God's care and encouragement. I hope to continue the blog even after the book is released to follow up on responses and other developments within the church.
