This review is from: My Son Eric (Hardcover)

My Son Eric is written with compassion, truth, and sensitivity. I am the mom of two gay children whom I love dearly and respect highly. Thank you to Mary Vorhek for the insight and wisdom to have written this beautiful book telling the truth about our gay children.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for gay christians & christian family members!, December 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: My Son Eric: A Mother Struggles To Accept Her Gay Son and Discovers Herself (Paperback)

Mary Borhek does an exquisite job of taking us through her journey of acceptance of her gay son. She explains how scary and complicated this journey was for her and how she questioned her faith without losing it! This book is a must have for anyone who is gay in a christian family and dealing with these issues. It also is a great resource for family and friends!

This review is from: My Son Eric: A Mother Struggles To Accept Her Gay Son and Discovers Herself (Paperback)

This book helped me immensely in accepting myself. I have only recently come out to my parents and hope to send this book to my Mother when things calm down. My parents are very much like Mary and Eric's father are in this book. I have much hope that this book will help, at least my mother, come to some understanding that it is okay to be gay and Christian. This is a must read, it is phenomenal.
