Some time ago, an article in the Bakersfield Californian Newspaper focused on National Coming Out Day with the articles emphasis being “Should a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender person come out to you, please be kind.” I couldn’t agree more.

Not long ago, during one of our men’s discipleship group meetings, we began talking about “vows” people make and more specifically, how vows relate and contribute to a man or woman having an issue of same-gender attraction.
