More Info

Because his one son happened to be gay and had attempted suicide early in his life, the author has spent more than forty years working in ministry to the gay community. He relates some of the experiences of this lengthy career. The stories he tells are of real LGBT people engaging in heroic charity. These tales conflict with the cultural stance most often supported by religion. He has a particular focus on the Catholic faith, as that is his own origin. The stories of LGBT people do truly fit the title, The Gay Samaritan. His critique of the negative impact of the religious right raises a significant challenge to their hypocritical adherence to Jesus's command for us all to love one another.
