Exclude Not Thyself : How to Thrive as a Covenant-Keeping Gay Latter-Day Saint

There have been a decent amount of hard truths I've had to embrace as a gay Latter-day Saint in order to feel secure and confident in my role as a husband and father. As I've done so, however, I've been able to be successful in creating a joyous and lasting eternal marriage with an amazing woman. It's not a contrived marriage that I have to white-knuckle my way through; it's an intuitive, natural love and companionship that has stood the test of time and the most bitter of trials. From facing public controversy, to losing our son, to dealing with infertility, we've only become more resilient and connected, and our love has only deepened.
