Timothy Kurek, raised within the confines of a strict, conservative
Christian denomination in the Bible Belt, Nashville, Tennessee, was
taught the gospel of separation from a young age. But it wasn’t long
before Timothy’s path and the outside world converged when a friend came
out as a lesbian, and revealed she had been excommunicated by her
family.
Distraught and overcome with questions and doubts about his
religious upbringing, Timothy decided the only way to empathize and
understand her pain was to walk in the shoes of very people he had been
taught to shun. He decided to come out as a gay man to everyone in his
life, and to see for himself how the label of gay would impact his life.
In the tradition of Black Like Me, The Cross in the Closet is a
story about people, a story about faith, and about one man’s
“abominable” quest to find Jesus in the margins.
The Cross in the Closet by Timothy Kurek is a national and international best-seller, currently available in English, as well as Hungarian and Chinese. Timothy is also an internationally sought-after speaker lecturing at colleges, conferences and churches in Australia, Italy, Canada and all over the continental United States. He has been featured on ABC's The View, Fox News Alan Colmes, CNN, The BBC, Canal+, MSNBC, CTV, HLN, Sirius/XM and hundreds of other national and international radio/television/print media outlets. Released October 11th, 2012, the book is currently available in print and all e-book formats. For more information contact Timothy on Facebook: www.Facebook.com/TimothyKurek |
Brandon Wallace, raised in the delta of Arkansas, spent his entire life trying to hide behind a mask. Growing up, he knew only two things about himself: he was called to ministry and he was attracted to the same sex. Afraid that coming out would destroy his reputation, livelihood, and ministry, he hid his sexual identity in hopes of finding love and acceptance. However, God would take him on a journey he never expected. Straight-Face is the memoir of that long and profound journey from hiding behind a mask to living an authentic life; from running from himself to accepting his orientation and ultimately his faith. It is a story about life, about love, and about reconciling the unique beauty of both in a world that is slowly but surely learning to do the same.
Brandon Wallace is a teacher, speaker, well-known blogger and author based out of Memphis, TN. His passion in life is to push the envelope of what it means to be a follower of Christ and to simultaneously try to help everyone experience the power and freedom that authenticity gives us as it relates to our relationship with God. His unabashedly honest approach to questions of spirituality and sexuality make him approachable by anyone trying to deal with the subject matter. He has a way of engaging his audiences with humor while at the same time engaging their hearts and minds in a powerful way. His first book, Straight-Face, released December 2014 and is already making waves in the Christian and LGBT world. Brandon is an internationally sought-after speaker, lecturing at conferences and churches literally around the globe. For more information visit www.thegaychristian.com |
