  abstract: "He has been a broadcaster for the BBC, helped organize the Public Broadcasting System in America, and was a founding chairman of National Public Radio. He designed and directed the first system of suicide and crisis counseling centers in California (a model for later centers nationwide) and helped found the Parsonage, an Episcopalian ministry to the gay community in the Castro section of San Francisco. And all the while, Bernard Duncan Mayes struggled to reconcile his views on sexuality - and his experience as a gay man - with his theological and cultural beliefs. Throughout Escaping God's Closet, Mayes recounts how social and doctrinal oppression posed fundamental challenges to his own belief system, but led him to revelations about sexuality, Christianity, and the nature of human existence itself."--BOOK JACKET.
