"e;Fun and full of insight"e; - Jonathan ClatworthyEmbarrassed is the honest story of one man s struggle with a faith that was important to him but meant so little to his non-believing friends. Coloured with tender emotion, misunderstanding and desire to follow what he thought was right, Embarrassed tells of Graham Turner s coming out about the shame he has carried all his life.He felt awkward when his friends commented, You seem like a nice guy, how come you believe this nonsense? Crippling embarrassment confused and wounded him; it alienated him from many of the people he knew and valued who did not do God .But, in time, this awkwardness became the catalyst that led him to discover a deeper, more generous and less simplistic appreciation of life in all its fullness. This is not a heroic story of triumph over adversity, but the discovery of goodness in all things through an experience of life falling apart and decades of being ill at ease. His is a story of discovery, fulfilment and hope.
