out of focus

Westminster John Knox Press publishes ‘Out of Focus,’ a story of sexuality, shame and toxic evangelicalism

When a mass shooter killed five people in an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs, grieving people graffitied Dr. James Dobson’s Focus on the Family headquarters with the words “Their blood is on your hands.” Such an accusation against evangelicalism comes as no surprise to Amber Cantorna-Wylde, whose father is a Focus on the Family executive and cast Amber out of her family when she came out in 2012. For the first time, Amber will name her father in this book.
