KC and Larry met at Exodus International’s “ex-gay” ministry Love in Action while trying to “pray away the gay”. The two men fell in love and are now legally married. The Jansson’s story was featured recently in the Dallas Voice’s Valentine’s Day issue. Truth Wins Out invited KC and Larry to Memphis to speak at Rhodes College on the closing night of TWO Executive Director Wayne Besen’s Winter Tour. The speaking engagement brought KC & Larry back to where it all began — at the Memphis “ex-gay” ministry!
Enjoy this beautiful three-part story of true love and genuine acceptance. This is real love in action.

YES!!!!!! IM REALLY GOING TO CONTACT GRETA. I GOT THROUGH TO THE INFAMOUS ROD PARSLEY. IM SURE GRETA IS NOT AS NASTY AS HE IS.
John, I’ve been chilled from the start, you on the other hand with your all caps screaming and gun’s blazing could definitely use some chillin’.
Weeeell… Okay. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya.
Haha Priya, if he thought your replies were fiery, then in retrospect maybe I should’ve given him a link to PZ’s blog instead. Then again, I’m not sure he has a “Concern Trolls” article.
Yes Makyui, I thought I was pretty restrained with John.
MAKYUI-YOUR OBVIOUSLY A WEB MONITOR. YOU THEN HAVE MY E-MAIL ADDRESS- E-MAIL ME OR HAVE A PERSON FROM YOUR GROUP DO THAT. IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.I JUST GOT SLAMMED BY SOME GUY FROM A GROUP CALLED REPENT AMERICA. HE IS NOW CALLING ME A TRAITOR. BECOUSE I EVOLVED FROM BEING AGAINST GAYS TO BEING ACCEPTABLE. AND PRIYA-I HAD TO MAKE THOSE COMMENTS YESTERDAY-BECOUSE MY BOSS-WAS READING OVER MY SHOULDER. SHE IS VERY ANTI-GAY. I APOLOGIZE. SEE YOU ALL LATER.
MY BEST FRIEND-KILLED HERSELF 5 YEARS AGO- BECOUSE SHE WAS ATTACKED FOR BEING GAY- SHE WAS ATTACKED BY OPIE AND ANTHONY THE SHOCK JOCKS. THEY SHOULD BE OFF THE RADIO.THEY JUST TRASHED HER AND A LOT OF OTHERS. SAYING E-MAIL ADDRESSES AND HER PHONE OVER THE AIR. THESE TWO MORONS WERE FIRED.BUT THER ARE STILL ON THE RADIO, HAVE ANICE DAY.
No, John, I’m not a web monitor and I don’t work here. I’m just an internet vagrant who’s pitched his tent in a comfy spot and wishes to share his beans with friendly compatriots.
Your posts will be visible here, though, and I’m sure someone with admin rights will find them.
And I’m sorry you lost your friend.
THANK YOU- I AM NOT GAY- BUT I HAVE A LOT OF FRIEND WHO ARE. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING MY CREDENTIALS TO ANOTHER CHURCH.
rev? john–RELEASE YOUR CAPS LOCK.
Rev, Modler…nice to see it. I am sorry about your friend, and wish you luck as you move your credentials.
COGIC’s position, like that of many fundamentalist sects in what it is. That doesn’t make it right, moral, or accurate.
To argue that the Bible (or any other religious text in existence) is actually God’s “divine and verbally inspired word” is ludicrous. The clear factual errors in every one of said texts proves clearly that they are man made, of human wisdom and knowledge appropriate to the period in which they were first penned, and changed over time by not only translators, but by scribes.
To start “Reverend” and “Bishop” (and what is your genuine apostolic lineage???) you should consider reading Dr. Bart Ehrman’s book “Misquoting Jesus: The story of who changed the Bible and Why” After reading that thoroughly and doing some modicum of actual scholarship (study to show yourself approved, right?) THEN maybe there is something to talk about.

Rev John you are blowing my mind. You are all over the place, saying how bad gays are , then saying how you have gay friends, then say your boss was looking over your shoulder and thats why you say mean things. Was she looking over your shoulder when you put these comments on another page on the same dates? I Quote” MY RESPONSE TO THE TWO PEOPLE IS VERY CLEAR. ATHE WORD OF GOD IS THE SAME TODAY AS IT WAS YESTERDAY. IT DOES NTO CHANGE TO FIT THE AGENDA OF THE DAY. IT IS NOT A BURGER KING MENU. I PRAY FOR THE GAY MAN FROM GERMANY BECOUSE IF HE DOES NOT REPENT HE WILL NOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD. LIBERALS WANT TO REWRITE THE WORD OF GOD. IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY. AND THE C.O.G.I.C. IS THE LARGEST BLACK HOLINESS CHURCH IN AMERICA. AND WE RESPOND TO RACISM AND C.O.G.I.C. MEANS CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST,INC.A ND THE BLACK CHURCH LEAD TO THE PASSAGE OF PROP 8 A GREAT LAW AND THE POWER OF THE BLACK CHURCH HELPED STOP GAY MARRIAGE IN MARYLAND AND THE BLACK CHURCH COGIC WILL LEAD THE EFFORT OT PASS A FEDERAL MARRIAGE AMENDMENT THAT KEEPS MARRIAGE BETWEEN ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN. AND KEEPS POLYGAMY ILLEGAL. MY SENIOR PASTOR IS THE GREAT BISHOP KERNEY THOMAS FOF THE ABUNDANT LIFE COGIC. AND COGIC WAS ONE OF THE FIRST CHURCHES TO COME OUT WITH A PROCLAMATION ON MARRIAGE. ALSO MY RESPONSE OT THE TWO RESPONDERS IS READ YOUR BIBLE. SIN IS SIN PERIOD. NO COMPROMISE.NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!ALSO GAY RIGHTS IS NOT A CIVIL RIGHT. IF YOU GO TO THE C.O.G.I.C. WEBSITE THERE IS A GREAT ARTICL ON HOW THE GAY RIGHTS MOVEMENT HIJACKED THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. THE GAY LIFESTYLE IS NOT A CIVIL RIGHT. THESE LOST SOULS CHOOSE TO LIVE THE LIFESTYLE THEY LIVE. AND THEY ARE NOT TRUE CHRISTIANS. BISHOP KERNEY THOMAS http://WWW.KERNEYTHOMAS.ORG ONE OF THIS NATIONS LEADING BLACK PASTORS SAID IT VERY WELL. YOU CAN’T BE A CHRISTIAN AND BE LIVING A LIFE OF TOTAL SIN IN TOTAL DEFIANCE OF THE LORD. AND ANYONE LIVNG THE GAY LIFESTYLE DON’T GOT THE HOLY GHOST OR CHRIST. AND HIS RESPONSE TO ANIT-CHRISTIAN BIGOTRY IS GREAT. THESE PEOPLE ARE DEMONICALLY OPPRESIVE AND RACIST.THE WORD OF GOD IS CLEAR. SIN IS SIN- NO COMPROMISE. AND THE C.O.G.I.C. IS THE CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST,IN ATHE LARGEST BLACK HOLINESS CHURCH IN AMERICA. WE BELIEVE IN STANDARDS. HOLINESS STANDARDS AND MORAL AN ETHICAL STANDARDS. WE RESPOND TO RACISM AND ANTI-CHRISTIAN BIGOTRY. WE ARE THE FIRST CHURCH TO COME OUT WITH A PROCLAMATION ON MARRIAGE. AND THE BLACK CHURCH IS POWERFULL! A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH. COGIC GOT THE HOLY GHOST. COGIC WAS ONE OF THE LEADING FORCES TO PASS PROP 8 AND STOP GAY MARRIAGE IN MARYLAND LAST WEEK. AND COGIC WILL BE ON OF THE DRIVING FORCES TO PASS A FEDERAL MARRIAGE AMENDMENT. THAT KEEPS MARRIAGE BETWEEN ONE MAN AN ONE WOMAN AND KEEPS POLYGAMY AND ALL FORMS OF PERVERSITY ILLEGAL.SIN IS SIN THERE IS NO COMPROMISE!! NONE!! WORD OF GOD IS NOT A BURGER KING MENU. AN THOSE WHO PERVERT THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST WILL BE ACCURSED. GALATIANS VERY CLEAR ON THAT.AND MY REPSONSE TO RICK IS YES BOTH SIDES OF THE ISSUE NEED TO SIT DOWN AND HAVE A DISCUSSION. I HAVE TRIED. BUT I FIND PRO GAY GROUPS SUCJ AS ONE IOWA FOR EXAMPLE WHO REFUSE TO TALK TO ME AND THEY ALSO CENSOR ANYONE WHO DOES NOT AGREE WITH THME. THAT IS NOT TOLERANCE. THAT IS INTOLERANCE. These were your comments in response to
Rev. Alice Hunt
article respect marriage don’t defend in the Chicago tribune. You refered as well as Bishop( i use the term loosely)Keiney Thomas that you are a church that responds to racism. You and KT repeatedly call your church a “BLACK” church. So there are no white people in that church? isn’t that racists.YES and it’s hypocratic. Your friend is rolling over in her grave right now.John 8:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
Matthew 7:1-5“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Romans 2:1-3:1 Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. 2 We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. 3 Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God? This one is for you KT Matthew 7:55 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye. Shame on both of you men of GOD!!!!
