On a daily basis, author and LGBTQ advocate Amber Cantorna receives emails asking the same question: How does one reconcile their sexuality with their faith? Depression, despair, and thoughts of suicide often haunt LGBTQ Christians as they feel unable to imagine the possibility of living a happy, fulfilling life as an LGBTQ person of faith.

As the gay daughter of a 30-plus-year executive of conservative Christian organization Focus on the Family, Amber lost everything when she came out as gay in 2012. However, her journey to embrace her authenticity brought her fulfillment and wisdom to share. Unashamed serves as a guide for Christians considering coming out, tackling tough subject matters such as demolishing internalized homophobia, finding an affirming faith community, reestablishing your worth as a child of God, navigating difficult family conversations (especially in cases where family is involved in church leadership/ministry), and healing from the pain of rejection. Unashamed encourages LGBTQ Christians to embrace their unique identities and to celebrate the diversity placed inside them by God.

This woman reading, or maybe just the recording itself, sounds like Alexa, or Siri. Very robotic, and hard to listen to. Of course I listened anyway because the book itself is amazing!

Awesome book, weird sound

I was encouraged and embraced throughout each chapter of this well written book. From heart breaking testimonials to affirming language filled with love and inclusion...I felt healing throughout the experience. If anyone has felt the pain of rejection, or questioned their worth because of trauma in the Christian world being an LGBTQ+ member, I highly recommend giving this guide a read. From the start to finish know you will be affirmed, validated, and seen as the beautiful individual you are. ❤ 🌈

Inspiring, Affirming, and exactly what I needed ♡
