"Love is Greater than AIDS: A Memoir of Survival, Healing, and Hope is Rev. A.

He reflects on his childhood and college years, leading up to his coming out story. Soon after, he responds to a call to the ministry by attending seminary and then serving in Metropolitan Community Churches, a primarily LGBTQ+ denomination."-- From Amazon.
