About the Book

Coming out of the Closet without Coming Apart at the Seams is a witty yet stirring testimony of one lesbian’s struggles in and out of the closet. 

As a teenager, Gail peeked out of her closest from time to time. But, her fear of being ridiculed and misunderstood kept her from taking any chances. During Bible College, the closet became her home. After years of warped counseling in ex-gay ministries, she grew tired of trying to change.

So, eventually, she took a risk.

She risked losing her family, her friends and her faith.

She risked it all . . . for the chance to be herself.

“Coming out of the Closet …” is more than a memoir. It is an ideal read for anyone seeking to reconcile homosexuality and faith. Combining her Bible College background with unique story-telling abilities, Gail created a practical and powerful defense against religious and political agendas.

Gail’s story is definitely out of the ordinary.

She’s come completely out of her shell.

Some will think she’s out of her mind

Others will think she’s out of this world.

But, no matter what, Gail has successfully come out of the closet without coming apart at the seams.
