Stranger at the Gate: To be Gay and Christian in America
In this book, Mel White details his twenty-five years of being counselled, exorcised, electric-shocked, prayed for, and nearly driven to suicide because his church said homosexuality was wrong. But his salvation--to be openly gay and Christian--is more than a unique coming-out story. It is a chilling expose that goes into the secret meetings and hidden agendas of the religious right.
