My Story

I don’t believe I’m alone in my desires for love and intimacy, and the hope I have to live a life full of meaning and purpose. I often wonder what God is up to in my life and how to make sense of the intense sexual desires He has given me.

Growing up I came to doubt my self-worth. I came to believe I was only worthy if I could be perfect and know all the right answers: biblically, academically, relationally, etc.

As it turned out, hiding behind the mask of perfectionism and knowledge actually kept me from true intimacy and a life of purpose.

On the outside everything looked good. I was the proverbial “good kid” and “nice guy.” But on the inside my heart was numb and dying. My soul grew thirsty and it was no longer enough to merely appear good. I wanted to drink deeply of life, to live passionately, and so started my journey toward wholehearted living.
