Summary

The God Box


How could I choose betwen my sexuality and my spirituality, two of themost important parts that made me whole? High school senior Paul has dated Angie since middle school, and they'regood together. They have a lot of the same interests, like singing intheir church choir and being active in Bible club. But when Manueltransfers to their school, Paul has to rethink his life. Manuel is thefirst openly gay teen anyone in their small town has ever met, and yethe says he's also a committed Christian. Talking to Manuel makes Paulreconsider thoughts he has kept hidden, and listening to Manuel'sinterpretation of Biblical passages on homosexuality causes Paul toreevaluate everything he believed. Manuel's outspokenness triggersdramatic consequences at school, culminating in a terrifying situationthat leads Paul to take a stand. Lambda Literary Award-winning author Alex Sanchez tackles a subjectripped from the headlines in this exciting and thought-provokingexploration of what it means to be both religious and gay.
