No Longer Strangers

More about the book

The narrative explores the author's struggle with a hybrid identity, feeling neither fully American nor Indonesian. As a celibate gay Christian, they grapple with belonging in both their cultural and religious communities. Through the lens of faith, the author reflects on the paradox of belonging—finding a deeper sense of connection by embracing their outsider status. The message encourages readers who feel alienated to embrace their uniqueness and discover belonging in a more profound, spiritual sense, inviting them to unite in their shared experience of feeling out of place.
