Openly Gay at a Christian College

Hear These Words Of Mine

December 12, 2012 in Christianity, Life Lessons, Openly Gay at a Christian College

As a backstory for this post, I went to a private Christian university. I was openly gay and accepted by most of my peers, professors, resident directors, staff members, etc. I tried to start a club where LGBT students felt their were acknowledged and not alone on their Christian campus. The club application process was […]

Hope-kleptos

October 14, 2012 in Openly Gay at a Christian College

“If you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes.” Portland weather is fickle. One moment, divine sunshine beams on evergreen covered hills. The next moment, torrential downpours send you running to the nearest overhanging branch. C’est ma cite. In first grade, I lived less than a mile from my elementary school and would walk to […]

We grabbed coffee after my recent coming out and she began to cry

September 9, 2012 in Christianity, Life Lessons, Openly Gay at a Christian College

She placed her elbows on the table and tilted her head slightly downward. I could see her starting to wipe the inner corners of her blue eyes, the corners where our tears tend to manifest. For the past two hours, we had been catching up on life over the past several months, with minor flashbacks […]

I'm an Atheist

July 23, 2012 in Christianity, Openly Gay at a Christian College

His eyes looked extra blue today. It may have been that slim fit white polo with light blue stripes or the glasses he wore because he knew it would make me happy… and he probably didn’t want to deal with his contacts, but for story sake, it was for me. I even got to try […]

Christianese: Just Stop Talking

July 19, 2012 in Openly Gay at a Christian College

The barista steamed some milk from behind the counter as he and I shared a conversation and exchanged our words. From time-to-time, some words would roll across from his corner. “Sin jadfjal jdfa dfasf asf blessed. Asd kfajdf dfjaldfj Eternity sdj kfj akdj salvation.” I’d slip them under the table, discreetly trying to dispose of […]

Idaho Moonshine

June 10, 2012 in Christianity, Openly Gay at a Christian College

Give me a large body of water and a night sky, and I’m gone. Mid-July amidst the summer heat of the Pacific Northwest, my high school youth group drove your typical yellow school bus almost 400 miles to the Dworshak Reservoir. The expanse of pure Idaho water runoff covers sixteen and a half acres amongst […]

We Did It: A Nationals Thank You

May 31, 2012 in Openly Gay at a Christian College

For this Oregon boy, the sun was scorching, and the air was humid. It was an hour before the championship race of the 400-meter hurdles at the NAIA national championships in Marion, Indiana, and I could hardly keep my head on right. He and I were jogging over to the indoor facility to warm-up, and […]

Gift of Life

April 18, 2012 in Christianity, Openly Gay at a Christian College

She and I had just enough room to sit and talk. We were in the nook of the stairway of the coffee shop, the spot where the stairs go up mid-level and then switchback-like the trails I hiked back home in Oregon during the summer. A few days ago, she emailed me about some research […]

Being Gay at Point Loma Nazarene University

April 15, 2012 in Life Lessons, Openly Gay at a Christian College

The Road To Love Whether it is teaching that the Bible is a scrapbook or that water expresses emotions, professors and speakers at Point Loma make an effort to help us question things, inviting us to know things for ourselves, rather than regurgitate a worldview that isn’t necessarily our own. In the spring semester of […]

Illusions: Let's Be Real

April 1, 2012 in Openly Gay at a Christian College

The summer following my senior year of high school, my youth pastor invited me to be a counselor at a Bible camp located along a beach in Washington. My good friend (who had done it the year before) and I would be sharing a cabin of eight rowdy six to eight-year-old boys. This would be […]
