This is not a book about forsaking gayness. This is a book about laying down your idols, whatever they might be, and trusting in God's goodness over your own desires. As Jackie says, "Unbelief doesn't see God as the ultimate good. So it can't see sin as the ultimate evil. It instead sees sin as a good thing and thus God's commands as a stumbling block to joy... All I had to do [in believing the devil] was trust myself more than God's Word. I had to believe that my thoughts, my affections, my rights, my wishes, were worthy of absolute obedience and that in laying prostrate before the flimsy throne I'd made for myself, that I'd be doing a good thing."
