Alan and Leslie Chambers on Love, Marriage and Leaving the Ex-Gay Movement |
December 01, 2016 |

Alan Chambers sent shock waves through the Evangelical community when he shut down Exodus International, a network that worked to "re-orient" gays and lesbians through prayer and therapy. Alan and his wife Leslie talk about their decision to distance themselves from conversion therapy, and how they deal with same-sex attraction in their marriage. They spoke to Kevin Eckstrom, former editor-in-chief of Religion News Service and Communications Director at the Washington National Cathedral.

Allen Calhoun spent one year attending Regeneration, a faith-based organization that helps people struggling with sex and relations. He says the program worked--he is now straight and married to his wife Mary Ann.
But after spending 17 years and over $30,000 on three continents trying to become straight, Peterson Toscano came to believe that the task was impossible. He now believes there is nothing wrong with being gay and Christian. Peterson is now married to his husband Glen Reteif.
