Honestly, people who come out are my heroes. The incredible courage it takes and the incredible risk they take is phenomenally admirable.

In my experience and observation the two most risky issues to come out on are sexual and spiritual. These two seem to be the most taboo. And I applaud those who come out sexually and spiritually.

But there are situations where coming out is too risky. Not just Russia or the Bible Belt, but in your neighborhood as well.

That’s why I believe in providing safe places like The Lasting Supper where you can come out with people who will provide validation and support.
