Review Quotes




"Gregory L. Millikin's book tells the story of his coming out as a gay man, his being called to the priesthood, and how these two significant processes have been increasingly interwoven in his life. The story is peppered with some solid theological thinking. But this book is written largely as a reflection on what the Episcopal ordination process involves for those who believe themselves called to the priesthood of the church. It's a good, honest read for anyone considering ordination as well as those already involved in the process."
-The Rev. Carter Heyward, author, She Flies On

"Millikin's narrative quilt of wit, theology, and history warms the reader in a way only he can . . . an indispensable work. Hollywood certainly meets heaven in Greg's thoughtful treatment of an all-too-fraught convergence of subjects."
-The Rev. Canon Broderick Lee Greer, Canon Precentor at Saint John's Cathedral, Denver, Colorado

"Greg's story offers encouragement to any LGBT+ persons seeking vocational clarity regarding a potential call to ordained service in the church."
-The Rev. Sam Portaro, author, Sense and Sensibility

"Touching, in places humorous, and deeply wise, this is a powerful, helpful, and potentially transformative book."
- The Very Rev. Ian S. Markham, PhD, Dean and President of Virginia Theological Seminary and Professor of Theology and Ethics
