Bart is the son of church leader Booker who openly chastises homosexuality-despite his son's identity and Booker's own horrid abuses against the family. When Bart confronts corrupt members of the church, he's sent away to a group home, and Booker leaves the family...keeping up his crimes all while co-conspiring to sell God's goodness.
Finally away from the abuse, Bart starts a journey of healing as he reconciles his beliefs and the lies he's been raised with. When he meets compassionate people who show him a different way, a new world opens for him-one where Bart's identity is accepted unconditionally. But after the opportunity to confront his past meets his present, what will the consequences mean for his future?
Losing What I Never Had is for readers who have ever dared to combat hate disguised as religion in order to create a better life for generations to come.
