This book struck me as being greatly problematic. In itself, Jackie Hill-Perry's story is an amazing display of self-renunciation and grace. But it should never be used as a precedent. If this book is used as such, telling Christian LGBT people that God is willing to change them in the same way he apparently changed Jackie, they might very well be disappointed, along with their church leaders, family and friends who believe that homosexuality is sinful and that God wants their loved one to become a heterosexual.

I advise anyone who wants to read this book to do some other reading first. I especially recommend Torn by Justin Lee. That would set a backdrop for this book and provide some counterweight for any quick conclusions and judgments.
