apologetcs

With difficulty, at age 36, Andy Wells came out as gay. He's about to release a book entitled - Tried to be Straight, Biblical Options for Gay Christians. In Part I, Ken follows Andy's journey that took him from Episcopalian to Congregational all in historic Pasadena. He had a profound conversion experience that changed everything. As a new evangelical Christian, Andy shares his faith with Heidi Fleiss, the Hollywood Madam. He encountered questions he could not answer so he enrolled at Simon Greenleaf, then Biola University and completed a M.A. in Apologetics. He talks openly about his growing awareness of his own sexuality but his need to keep the gnawing conflict to himself. In Part II, Andy talks about his experience with reparative therapy, the Exodus Movement, and finally his coming out, and his continued, robust faith - his love for Jesus, the Bible and his new-found community.
