ZPower2b: Born on a Royal Air Force Base, in West Germany, to an American family. Lived around the world; caught in the riptide at 5yo and "saw the light at the end of the tunnel"; saw my first ghost at 7yo; I learned to fly before I learned to drive a car; I joined the Navy in Alaska because my brother asked me to tell his girlfriend about the Lord -- she didn't like that --- he kicked me out of the house ... so I lived with an Eskimo in his cabin until I figured out what to do; lost my entire circle of friends when I stepped into dignity and came out of the closet at 28yo --- as you can see, my life hasn't exactly been the usual ride. I decided to start this blog at the behest of many people who had seen my original video on YouTube (Gay and Christian in the Military) .. they said it inspired them and that many more people could be helped if I supplemented the videos with a blog. From gay teens to married men with children -- all gay and feeling like a ship without rudder -- I hope this hand I extend, will bring hope back to your spirit!
