I respect Jackie and her journey. I don’t think her story is the universal experience of same-sex attracted Christians, and I would caution against using this as an authoritative work on the complexities of homosexuality and Christianity.

Moderate: Sexual assault
Minor: Homophobia
I can imagine this book might be painful for anyone with religious trauma, especially if it surrounds homosexuality in any way.macliffe's review

Such a refreshing and reflective take on this prominent issue! As someone who has struggled with sexuality and has close friends who have as well, I can report that this book is so insightful into the experience of the same sex attracted Christian and the flaws of the heterosexual gospel. It both enlightens and convicts, providing so much wisdom rooted in God’s Word and her personal experience as a lesbian. It accomplishes the incredible feat of condemning the sin and loving and respecting the sinner.
Moderate: Abandonment
Minor: Sexual assault
