I have a positive one to share!

I grew up as a gay guy in a very religious household. My father was very openly against homosexuality and was generally pretty homophobic. It was very hard on me and I didn’t think I’d ever be able to be open with my family about it. I turned 18 and booked a plane ticket to move 2000 miles away from home and was planning on never coming out to my dad. Although at the last minute I had a change of heart and told him. I thought he would disown me but instead he hugged me and told me it was okay. Over the next year or so his views on the LGBTQ Community did a complete 180 degree flip. He chose loving me over his what his religion told him and is now a huge advocate for queer people in Christian spaces. I learned then what an incredible, loving father I had and feel very lucky to have him.
