John Smid, the former Executive Director of Love in Action — an ex-gay Christian ministry that purported to “restore those trapped” in homosexuality — has married his same-sex partner in Oklahoma.
Smid married Larry McQueen on Sunday, Nov. 16.
The Memphis Flyer reports that Smid has been living as an out gay man for several years, and he’s been in a relationship with McQueen for one year. The couple live in Paris, Texas, where Smid moved from his Memphis home in the summer of 2013.
In 2011, Smid publicly admitted that he is gay, and disavowed the message he preached for years that promised gays they could change: “One cannot repent of something that is unchangeable.”
