FromTheArchives: David Archuleta singing ''Cause the possibility that you would ever feel the same way about me, it's just too much' hits different | preenph
Listening to David Archuleta sing the lines “‘Cause the possibility that you would ever feel the same way about me, it’s just too much” and “Why do I keep running from the truth? All I ever think about is you” during Pride month is always an experienceOn June 13, the “American Idol” alum opened up about figuring out his sexuality and coming out as someone with a religious upbringing. I’m sure it’s something that hits close to home, especially for his local LGBTQIA+ fans .
He stated that people of faith can do better to listen to the struggles of LGBTQIA+ members of their religious communities. “I just invite you to please consider making room to be more understanding and compassionate to those who are LGBTQIA+ and trying to find that balance with their faith—which also is a huge part of their identity,” he said.
“I’ve tried for almost 20 years to try and change myself until I realized [that] God made me how I am for a purpose. And instead of hating what I have considered wrong, I need to see why God loved me for who I am and that it’s not just [because of my] sexuality. So many other traits of [mine] come from how I’ve been created,” he explained.
His advice for fellow queer folk of faith? “Even if you’re left with so many more questions with faith and sexuality like me, I believe being open to both questions and to faith is how we receive answers.”
