Rachel Gilson, author of Born Again This Way, has experienced same-sex attraction since she was a young woman. After coming to Jesus as a student at Harvard, Rachel shares how she learned to trust and obey God even when it's hard. Rachel also shares how to think well about our desires and submit them to Christ. We learn from Rachel how to approach the topic of homosexuality with thoughtfulness, truth, and compassion.
