Growing up as a Latter-day Saint, I was always taught to be honest and true to myself. My Mormon community told me I was part of a “noble generation,” and that if I did the right thing, God would bless me with the desires of my heart (as a closeted gay kid, being “normal” was my only desire).

I’d sit in the chapel, say the prayers, go through the motions—and I sung all the hymns, but it wasn’t enough. Following that path of doing what’s right—and letting the “consequence follow” turned out to be exactly what I needed.

For me, doing what was right meant coming out and eventually marrying a man. That was the honest thing, the truest thing I could do, and it was absolutely the right thing.

Growing up a gay Mormon was difficult but in hindsight I’m so thankful for the teachings and guidance that shaped my journey. Living authentically has brought me to a place where I feel truly fulfilled and at peace.

And the best part? I didn’t have to compromise a single one of my values or morals to get here. 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨👬
