MOving HOrizon: Family Reunion
http://www.movinghorizon.com/2010/07/family-reunion.html
Sunday, July 18, 2010. I have a few posts I still need to write that come chronologically before the three in this series including an amazing first date, the genesis of the MoHo Map. Coming out to my best friend, attending NYC Pride and meeting several other MoHo bloggers. But because of the significance of the events that have happened recently, I have decided to abandon the timeline for a bit to share my coming out story. That way I could establish a firm foundation of expectations with my parents.

MOving HOrizon: Elder Bednar on Homosexuality
http://www.movinghorizon.com/2011/03/elder-bednar-on-homosexuality.html
Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Elder Bednar on Homosexuality. I got there about 45 minutes early and the room was quickly filling up. One of my friends had saved me a seat in the front, and so I joined her on the pew. I settled in and removed a piece of paper from my bag that had the question I wanted to ask written on it. Here was my my question. I realized that by asking the question I was going to essentially out myself to the whole audience of young single adults from three stakes. Yes, I was nervous, b...

MOving HOrizon: April 2015
http://www.movinghorizon.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 8, 2015. I can hardly believe it myself. A half decade of truly being me! In the past five years, I’ve been on such a journey. From helping out the gay Mormon community to then focusing more on my own health and stability, I’ve found that true happiness comes from both serving others and from within. And I’m happier than ever. I’m going through so much change right now, but change is good. It. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Yes, i am. Raised Mormon - Turned Out Gay.

Sunday, April 8, 2012. Two years out today! Best decision I've ever made in my life. I realize that I have not updated this blog in a whole year. (Sorry about that! But what a year it has been! In the brief few minutes before I miss my anniversary date for posting this, I wanted to share that this past year has been the best of my life. Yes it had ups and downs, but I am happier and healthier than I ever have been. To summarize my entire last year, I can simply say this: it does get better. :). Yes, i am.

MOving HOrizon: Coming Out, Part 5
http://www.movinghorizon.com/2011/02/coming-out-part-5.html
Thursday, February 17, 2011. Coming Out, Part 5. I'd finally done it. After all of the anxiety, self-loathing, guilt, fear, trepidation and uncertainty, I told my parents I was gay. And I was still ok. I hadn't been kicked out. I wasn't rejected. I wasn't cast out of the family. I was loved. I was accepted. I was still me. The feeling was akin to the divine love I felt in the temple when I asked God if He accepted me as His gay son. My earthly parents had accepted me too. I messaged my friends who had of...

MOving HOrizon: Coming Out to an Apostle
http://www.movinghorizon.com/2011/03/coming-out-to-apostle.html
Friday, March 11, 2011. Coming Out to an Apostle. Thanks for everyone's thoughts and opinions on what Elder Bednar said (or did not say) regarding homosexuality. I tend to remain generally optimistic, based on a one-on-one interaction I had with him following the fireside. As someone who is gay and active in the church, who is doctrinally grounded to the extent that I am capable of understanding, who is temple worthy, who serves the Lord and those around me, making friends and doing what I can whenever I...
