Publisher NotesSally Lowe Whitehead offers the riveting tale of her lifelong search for a spiritual home--and her discovery of a secret that broke and remade her family, her life, and her vision of faith. Sally Lowe Whitehead and her husband were spiritual seekers, Cradle Catholic and cradle Episcopalian, they became born-again southern Baptists, joined home churches and repressive religious sects--all in a restless search for a faith that felt real, a God that seemed true. But after 21 years of marriage, after the birth of six sons, and in the midst of their journey into Christian fundamentalism, Whitehead learned a shocking truth: Michael, her husband, was gay. "The Truth Shall Set You Free" is Whitehead's fascinating chronicle of her struggle to accept the truth about her husband--and to free herself from fundamentalism and embrace a joyous new vision of God and family. In this honest and lucid memoir, Whitehead tells the story of her marriage, her husband's secret life, their roving quest after God--and the unexpected truths of acceptance, forgiveness, and love that they discovered at that quest's end.
