  1. Jim does not consider himself a Gay man, because he does not identify himself as a sinner.
  2. Biggest weakness – The homosexual lifestyle is always a temtation.
  3. Biggest Strength – Being a disciple for men. When men are vulnerable with each other we find our strength.

  6. Jim feels we don’t know what causes the sexual disfunction. There’s no scientific evidence that there’s a gay gene. He believes that homosexuality is caused by environment and based on relationship with with a parent of the same sex.
  7. God has a way of healing and restoring us and he was able to restore his relationship with his dad whom Jim felt was much closer with his brother.
  8. Whatever gifts God gives your sons come along side them and support those gifts even if they’re different from your gifts.
  9. During his dark time Jim lost everything financial and was homeless. God started doing small miracles to move him along the process of recovery.
    Jim moved home with every intention of financially recovering and continuing with the homosexual lifestyle. Dad took him out to celebrate that his son had come home.
