| From
my earliest memories, I found men attractive; and for some time, never acted
out my feelings. I started on the right road, served a mission, married in
the temple, was a good father and husband, and served in both a bishopric
and a stake presidency. I wanted to do what was right, and quietly longed
for the day when my faith would cure me.
Since I did not yet understand my own unmet needs, my pain only
increased. I finally became tired of feeling guilty without justification,
and surrendered to temptation. Because of my involvement with sin, my church
service ended. My spirit died. Without hope, it became easy to be controlled
by Satan.
I needed help. I asked God, my bishop, and my wife for help. Through
their love and support I was directed to a wise therapist, and to Evergreen.
Evergreen has made all the difference in the world. I have now experienced
enough healing, and tasted enough freedom from homosexuality that I can
clearly see the growing light at the end of the tunnel, and can feel it's
warmth.
