Description: Why would a Christian man be attracted to homosexuality? How does homosexuality start? What do parents need to know? Is there a gay world? What do churches need to know? Are AIDS victims "guilty"? For Jerry Arterburn, his early exposures to homosexuality occurred at church-related functions, beginning at the age of five, when he was molested by an older boy at church camp--the same night he accepted Jesus. This is the frank, told-from-the-inside story of alienation and rejection, acceptance and hope, as a man longing to fit in. This is Jerry's personal life story and his personal message.--Adapted from back cover.
Notes: Cover has subtitle: A true story of one man's battle with homosexuality & AIDS.
