Philip Milton E Ford

Philip is the story of a boy who grows to manhood with a strong sense that God wants him to be a minister. His dreams are coming true when be graduates from seminary, gets married and becomes a pastor. But Philip fi nds himself in confl ict with members of his church who disapprove of the time he spends helping members of his congregation deal with a housing crisis caused by a freeway project that disrupts the neighborhood. He is then plunged into deep inner confl ict as he slowly realizes, through disturbing dreams and a series of male friendships, that he is gay. Philip explores the inner collision of deeply held religious values and an equally profound attraction to men in one man?s resolution of that battle.
