An intimate portrait of Dennis Jernigan, the man behind some of the biggest Christian songs of all time and his lifelong struggle with homosexuality.

Since the early 1990s Christians all over the world have been singing the songs of modern-day psalmist, Dennis Jernigan. His music and ministry, sparked by his lifelong struggle with homosexuality, have lead him on a remarkable journey of redemption and hope. Raised in a Christian home, Jernigan identified himself as gay at a young age and constantly feared the persecution of the church. Years of depression and despair followed as he tried to lead a double life, while secretly battling his desires. Through it all music remained the one thing he could find peace in, and it was through music that God changed him in ways he could have never imagined.—Anonymous
