Marc Adam's book "The Preacher's Son" is an emotional journey through his early life as a fundamentalist baptist and homosexual. I couldn't put this book down for one second. I read the whole thing in one sitting. I recommend this to anyone struggling with religion and homosexuality.
The story that could possibly be a life and mind changer

I was given this book by a friend, a woman that I worked with. I never have read a book about homosexuality or anything, this was my first. And it was so relevant to some things that I had questions about being gay and a youth. The whole religious thing always confused me until I realized that there is no changing me, this is the way God made me, and he doesn't make mistakes. Oh my gosh this is a book review not an auto-bio. Anyway, I mean, this book, in my opinion, is a must read for any young gay person, I mean, not just teenagers and such. Because I am sure that, no matter what religion, there are always struggles with something, this is how one person fought those struggles for the better of his life. That's all I can say about it right now, I mean, I gave it 5 stars didn't I? They say "allow 4-6 weeks, may be outta print" DON'T let this stop you! Go find this book, go to a second hand store, if you have to. You won't regret it. talk latre

This is my first gay biograghy that I have ever read. This book reminded me so much of painful experiences with religion and being gay as a young person. I am twenty-seven now and have accepted the fact that I am gay and don't feel ashame about it anymore. I fought so hard to deny who I really was and had no one to turn too. Marc this book has changed my life in more ways than one. I can't begin to explain it. Because of this book I have deciede to live my life more openly and I don't care what people any think anymore. At some point in are life I believe that we as gay people need to take a stand for who we are and for what we believe. The Preacher's Son is an awsome book and I recommend it to any young or older person struggling with their sexuality.
