Different Outcomes

the developing story of the Christian musician Jennifer Knapp. I have everything she's recorded. I love her voice, her honesty, vulnerability, authenticity and edginess. She vanished over 7 years ago from the music scene at the height of a very successful career. I checked nearly every month to find some activity, but nothing. I just discovered that she'd been hiding in the outback of Australia. She emerged out of her real and personal wilderness with a new album soon to be released and the announcement that she's a lesbian. She's in a discreet relationship and is happy, confident and in full creative swing. The outcome of the separate stories is enormous. Concerning Elton John's ex, I wished I could have talked with him. I wondered what kind of support he had from Christian friends. Was there a church community that respected him as he was without condemnation or the pressure to change? Not everyone who wrestles commits suicide. But many are murdered in their spirits or essentially die within. I know such people. Jennifer hid in the desert for 7 years with her faith, her sexuality and her career and came out the other end not just alive but at peace. From her own words, she has accepted who she is without self-condemnation. How did she do it? Did she have supportive friends? Did she have a Christian community that walked and continue to walk with her? Did she keep herself free from accusatory voices? I know there are many different factors at work in people's lives. So much depends on the individual: resilience, emotional health, conscience, theology, and so on. There are only some ways we can help there. But so much also depends on that individual's social network: the community, the love, the respect and acceptance, and much more. And there are so many ways we can be there.

It’s very very very true that people needs to leave gays/lesbians alone bc they live how they want. On the other hand people think that I’m gay but I’m not I’m bisexual I like women and men doesn’t mean that I just like men I like me and women I don’t suck dick but I let the other guy suck my dick and fuck me in the ass what’s wrong with another man f****** a another man in the ass it’s not because the other guy is gay it’s because he likes it he’s bisexual I love getting dick in my ass it feels good but I do have a wife that she puts her fingers in my butt and I like it it feels good but I was telling her to keep her pussy and get a cock just like a shemale
