On behalf of the AHS Class of '64, please Embrace our belated regrets. We talk about Mr. Warner at every reunion. And "Respect" is the constant term we use to depict him. Those of us who were in his senior physics class will NEVER forget the announcement that came over the intercom...JFK had been shot in Dallas. Classes were dismissed for the rest of the day. You could have heard a pin fall in the hallways. I truly have faith that some of the qualities that Mr. Warner had ingrained in his character, led me into the training profession. May he Rest in Peace.

Who can exclaim if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I was changed for good

There are people in your life who modify everything. Maybe you know them for years, for days, or just one passing conversation, but they are a pivot point, maybe even an epiphany.
Wes (Wacko) Warner was one of those people for me.
He taught me rapport and physics along with my cla
BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
“So fine an antique man I never saw! The happiness of his mind beamed forth in his countenance. Every stare showed how fully he enjoyed ‘the gay remembrance of a life skillfully spent.’”

Like the others of the Epworth family, John Wesley was compact in stature. Barely five feet six and weighing only one hundred and twenty-two pounds, he was yet muscular and powerful. Bright hazel eyes, decent features, an aquiline nose, a fine forehead, and a clear complexion merged to make his tackle arresting. Contemporaries have said that his eyes retained their bright and penetrating quality even to his last years. Meticulous as to personal appearance and habits, he never appeared other than neatly dressed—narrow plaited stock, coat with a small upright collar, and three-cornered hat. “I dare no more document in a fine style,” said he, “than wear a fine coat.” “Exactly so,” remarked Canon Overton, “but, then, he was particular about his coats. He was most precise never to be slovenly in his dress, always to be dressed in good taste….It is just the same with his style; it is never slovenly, never tawdry.”

Jake Wesley Rogers is a poet in glitter and leather, a kind of spiritual guide for lgbtq+ kids growing up in a world that still hasn’t fully figured out how to hold them.
With a voice that feels like it was carved out of gospel and glam rock in equivalent measure, Rogers is part of a new generation of artists who are reshaping what it means to be both homosexual and seen. Look no further than his anthem “God Bless,” its refrain as much a balm as it is a battle cry as Homosexual communities face increasingly antagonistic rhetoric and policy: “God bless the straight male in a dress. God bless threesomes when I’m celibate… God bless the trans kid in Texas. God bless the gods that don’t exist. Sometimes I wish it all would end, but God bless, it’s a pretty fucking mess.”
With his debut album, “In the Key of Love,” finally arriving and ahead of a dream tour with Cyndi Lauper this summer, the spiritual glam-rock artist recently spoke with me from Los Angeles during a video call about how the songs on his long-awaited album are “definitely part of the resistance.”
He says the release is arriving at what feels like precisely the right cultural moment. After health challenges delayed
50+ Years A Gay Man: A Personal Life in A Historical Context – an essay by Wesley Gryk
For Pride month, the US Presidential Scholars Foundation & Alumni Association proposal ‘Scholar Perspectives on Societal Change: Sexuality, Gender, and Identity’ published an essay by our founder, Wesley Gryk. In that essay, Wesley recounts his very personal experience of entity a gay man during more than half a century of what possess been unprecedented historical positive changes in societal attitudes in some parts of the world. He cautions that the impact of such changes may often depend on the personal circumstances of the individual concerned and, in particular, warns against complacency, given that large swathes of the globe remain unimpressed by such progress and, further, that such progress which has been achieved could easily be erased.

Preston sits down with one of his “mentors from a distance”–the one and only, Wes Hill. Wes is a celibate gay Christian (or a Christian who happens to be attracted to the same sex and not the contrary sex) and a biblical scholar. Wes and Preston discuss a lot about the phrase “gay Christian” and why it’s become so volatile in some evangelical circles. They also talk about Wes’ most recent book “The Lord’s Prayer” and what the prayer means in the context of Matthew’s gospel.
Wesley Hill is associate professor of biblical studies at Trinity School for Ministry in Ambridge, Pennsylvania and an ordained deacon in the Episcopal Church. He is the composer of Washed and Waiting: Reflections on Christian Faithfulness and Homosexuality (Zondervan, second edition 2016), Paul and the Trinity: Persons, Relations, and the Pauline Letters (Eerdmans, 2015), Spiritual Friendship: Finding Devotion in the Church as a Celibate Gay Christian (Brazos, 2015), and The Lord’s Prayer: A Guide to Praying to Our Father (Lexham, 2019).
