Glyndon Morris
Vanderbilt Divinity School
God brought me out.
A dear little old lady in church talked to my mom about college prospects. At college, my mom looked at the Student Activities brochure and joked, "Here's one for you -- the Gay and Lesbian Association." I thought to myself, "Bingo!" One of the men I lived with in the dorms was the president of the G.A.L.A. I would never have known of that college but for that little old lady -- in church.
God brought me out.
