In this episode, I have a lively conversation with ®EMMY Award-winning entrepreneur, faith-based communications expert and ordained minister, Tony Scott. Tony aka “The Apostle of Joy” and I talk about his new project, Grace for Gays, which is forging a new path ahead for those in our community who identify as gay, bi or queer as well as Christian.
Tony’s story is about embracing his individuality and finding grace as a black, gay and Christian man. Regardless of your religious or spiritual orientation, you’ll be inspired.
Tune in to hear Tony and I talk:
The 5 times he came out
Shifting from driving other people’s mission to driving his own
Embracing individuality as his superpower
Why he chose to go back in the closet on a quest for personal and spiritual growth
His vision for a new path forward to support LGBTQ Christians searching for grace and a loving connection with God

I often see questions about the validity of online tests for sexual orientation. It's important to be clear: no online quiz can definitively tell you your sexual orientation. That's a deeply personal aspect of who you are. However, tools like a sexual orientation test can serve a different purpose. They can act as a catalyst for self-reflection. The questions might make you think about your feelings, attractions, and experiences in new ways. For someone who is questioning or exploring, this kind of guided introspection can be a useful, private exercise.
