It Gets Better: Oral Roberts' Gay Grandson
Randy has also written an article about growing up in Tulsa with his evangelical family: "Something Good Is Going to Happen to You."
And here's a clip of Oral talking about homosex, from a post I made last year, which should tell you all you need to know about Ronnie's and Randy's struggles as gay teens and men in that family:

This young man left me speechless.
This is breathtakingly beautiful and good.
Russ, I have to hand it to you, you are on a roll here. You are finding such good nuggets of gold and making them available for us. Thank you.
No problem - glad you like, pardners.
grandson's cathartic video was very moving. esp to me who has lost the closest of family members to suicide because he was Gay..
now i needed Grand pa afterward, for the comic relief to lighten my soul. so according to Oral's logic it is wrong to be Gay bacause i cannot fit my dick into someone's ear. this is just how stupid the debate has become. seriously sad people here, there is no dialogue left.. the earth is NOT flat.
Glad you liked the comedy relief there. And what kind of sick mind obsesses about which orifices you can or can't fit your dick into? I really think gramps was a major closet case. Seriously.
The link to Randy's article in "This Land," the online Tulsa magazine, now comes up "not found." Do you suppose it's been censored already?
Okay, scratch that. I just realized that the post is a year and a half old, so it's deletion is probably understandable. Still wish I could find it though. He's a very articulate young man and I'd like to hear more from him.
Just google his name - Randy Roberts Potts - and you should find plenty of articles. He also has a personal website, though I forget the address at the moment.
