New book on journeying out of homosexuality

I've really appreciated reading this biography over the last couple of days. Christopher Keane shares his story about how he got into and then out of a homosexual lifestyle. He is very candid and open about his struggles and 'choices' in life and I think everyone would benefit from reading a book like this. Chris also deals with some of the controversial issues regarding same sex attraction and has much to say about how the church can be helpful in loving and encouraging those who struggle in this area. 
The book is a testimony to God's kindness and grace and the unexpected things that can happen when we dare to trust Christ first. 
One of the worst things we can do as a church is never to talk about the issues books like this address. If we never talk about it, those in our midst who struggle and grieve will never share how they are doing, and sadly, may well continue to struggle in isolation. This should not be.
Anyway, I thoroughly recommend it. Check out the above link and order a copy or give Christian Bookworld a call and they'll order it in.
