The Ex-Gay Factor Follow-up

Thanks for the great response to The Ex-Gay Factor printed in the Dallas Voice last Friday. The emails have been the sweet icing on a big ex-gay experience cake. All of it has warmed my insides.

I logged into myspace a few days ago and checked my email there, and one of the profile pictures in my inbox looked familiar, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out who it was. Solving the problem was easy...just open the email already. It was Julie! One of the ex-gays that I mentioned in the article. I'm not going to spill all of her business, but she basically wrote to tell me she's sorry I had a negative experience with Living Hope Ministries and wanted to clear up some misconceptions.

The gist...She doesn't believe that God sits in heaven with a finger (assuming God has fingers) on the panic button so it can be pressed anytime a gay person acts on an attraction. She just believes being gay is not God's best for her. She stopped short of making judgments about what God wants for me. She even said we could all be kicking back in heaven together someday. Interesting. Regardless, the vibe that God is disgusted with gay behavior comes from somewhere inside Living Hope, if not from Julie. I picked up on it and I asked Angela to verify, and she said she picked up on the same thing.

Have I mentioned that Angela went to this conference with me? Ha! Poor thing. She truly is my better half. I asked her that morning if she was nervous and she said she was. I really wasn't, so I promised I'd protect her by stopping them if they wanted to hook her up to electrodes and start the shock treatment. I'm good like that. Brady told me he knew we were a couple the minute he saw us and I'm sure others gathered the same. We wore matching wedding bands to the ex-gay conference for crying out loud. Helloooo. But we survived. And now I can pick her brain anytime I need another perspective.

So Julie and I have begun an email relationship that may progress into a Starbucks relationship and beyond. I have much respect for her faith. She loves Jesus wholeheartedly and her enthusiasm is infectious, and I want to learn from her example. We may never understand one another completely, but we might as well try. And grow closer to God in the process, which is probably the divine point in all of this chatter.

DR ISIKOLO is simply the best spell caster and helper. My name is Loreta Emilio, Out of respect for you and your spells I must make this testimony know to all. I've been to other spell casters without seeing any result.I just wished I came to you earlier, i got the best from you. My ex husband was gone for a year and I went everywhere and other spell casters for help but no result until my friend introduce me to Dr Isikolo After the Love Spell was done, I finally got a calls from him in 48 hours like DR ISIKOLO assured me. His spells worked wonders and my husband is back with full of love. It's a miracle! He suddenly came back with flowers saying that i should forgive him, i was truly flabbergasted and shocked when my husband kneel down begging for forgiveness and for me to accept him back. I'm really short of words and joyful, you are a God sent to me and my entire family. And now i am a joyful woman once again. Thank you so much Dr IsikoloTo everyone who is looking for a real spell caster should contact DR ISIKOLO On: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com You can also Whatsapp him on +2348133261196. webpage: https://isikololovetemple.com

I was married for 13 years. My marriage has been deteriorating for some time so it was bound to unravel. I was his loyal, faithful supportive and trusting Wife. He had an additional wild side that went out of control. The last incident is when I found out that he was having an affair 2 weeks before our 14th wedding anniversary. Out of the blue my husband just sprung the divorce talk on me. I was so hurt and being an independent woman, I thought I could cope with being single. It was so hard to move on so i had to reach out for help online. Our marriage and family therapists thought that "something" was not right about my husband. I went online and i found out about Dr. Mkuru and his good spell work reviews. I ordered for a Love spell on his website. 24 hours later in the morning around 09:34am I was totally shocked on how my Husband called me telling me how much he missed me. His spell worked on me so fast and my husband has been so loving, Natural and I'm having a happy marriage after using his love spell. If you are in a loveless and unhappy marriage that cannot be salvaged, believe me...There is light at the end of this tunnel. You can reach him on his contact details. email: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com. You Can Also Call Him Or Whatsapp him on +2348133261196. his direct website: https://isikololovetemple.com

My husband just woke up and decided that our marriage was over. For a few months, Roger and I have not been well because he was having an affair with his assistant at work. I loved my husband so much and decided to stay and work on our marriage. Before long, Roger stopped coming home and her close friend told me that he has another apartment where he lives with her. He hurt me and I kept looking for help because Roger was different from the man I married 10 years ago. Fortunately, I found baba eromosele who promised to bring my husband back to me. He performed a reconciliation spell that brought Rogers back and now we are both happy with our children again. If you have problems like mine, please email baba on his emaill address : babaeromosele12345@gmail.com ) or contact him on Whatsapp +2348140876149
