It Gets Better: A Theological Response

Professor Stephen Sprinkle is "out and free" and is an ordained Baptist minister and professor of divinity at Brite Divinity School. His message is honest and wise, and I loved hearing his encouraging and courageous story. "Tie a not at the end of your rope and hang on."

The Advocate:

Writer Dan Savage is reaching out to LGBT teenagers to let them know life may be difficult now, but "it gets better."

The "It Gets Better" Project is inspired by the suicide of 15-year-old Indiana teenager Billy Lucas, who hanged himself last week in his family's barn after enduring bullying from his classmates. After writinga post on The Slog about Lucas's death last week, one commenter expressed a desire to have spoken to him to tell him that things get better.
