My name is Christopher and I grew up LDS. For the first 12 years of my life, it was truly beautiful. I found it to be, for the most part, uplifting and inspiring. I still get teary eyed when I hear or sing songs like "I'm Trying to Be Like Jesus" because I am grateful for the feelings of love and compassion and general goodness that were instilled into me as a child. I do not regret a moment of being in the church. If I could go back in time and change it, I would not. I believe that I have always been exactly where I need to be, and that along the path I have learned important lessons that will further serve me where I am headed.

However, as Carl Jung said, “Thoroughly unprepared, we take the step into the afternoon of life. Worse still, we take this step with the false presupposition that our truths and our ideals will serve us as hitherto. But we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning, for what was great in the morning will be little at evening and what in the morning was true, at evening will have become a lie.”

I state in my video that being gay turned out to be one of the best things that ever happened to me. It sparked within me a deep desire for truth, and a yearning to love myself where before I had placed judgement. Although it was definitely the initial catalyst, my love and attraction for other men was far from the only reason that I left the church. Over the years since I began to leave the church, I have learned many other things about this magical life that have served me well, the most important of which, is that which I was told to worship outside of myself, actually lies within me, and that it was a lack of recognizing and loving that part of myself that caused me such pain.
