Meet the author behind Christian and an Ally: Why Being Gay is Okay in her second nonfiction work about sexuality, God, and more. 

Why am I doubting the religion that I grew up with and believed for most of my life? What are my thoughts on heaven, hell, original sin, and other complicated theological concepts? Why do I believe in evolution and cosmology? Why do I support the LGBTQ+ community? Step on in, my friends...

As a doubting Christian, these are merely my opinions. I am not a Bible scholar, nor do I claim to be representative of the greater Christian community. I realize that my views are not held by all Christians, and where discrepancies arise, I will do my best to address them.

❝If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.❞ — 1 Corinthians 13:1-3

❝For I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither life nor death, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries from tomorrow — not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below — indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.❞ — Romans 8:38-39

❝On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. . . ." Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.❞ — Romans 12:20-21

❝The Lord is my light and my salvation — whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid?❞ — Psalm 27:1  

❝Hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs.❞— Proverbs 10:12
