Hi everyone,
I apologise for not posting in a while but I have been really busy with freedom2b and with writing my thesis. I aim to post a whole heap of new things starting November 2011. In the mean time please take a listen to a recent interview I did on ABC Radio National for their Breakfast program.
Also...if you haven't checked out freedom2b yet then why not?? www.freedom2b.org
A reflection on my life and the challenges of being a gay young man in the modern day Pentecostal church and Australian society. After becoming a Christian, Ben then went through three years of ex-gay programs and reparative therapy enduring several suicide attempts, breakdowns and challenges. After admitting that nothing had really changed despite all the hard work, prayer, counselling and exorcisms. In 2008, Ben finally came out and found out that you could be gay and be a Christian.

You're a true inspiration. Your story/letter on free2b... well I could totally see myself in so much of it, except I have been fortunate not to go through many of the awful things you went through. Respect. It's given me hope that I can finally tell them, it's also given me hope that I can stay a Christian despite some bible verses which say some awful things and appear to put me on the same level as murderers and rapists because of something I have no control over. Thank you so much for your bravery. Maybe God wanted me to see this :)
