Jesse Dutlow was kicked out of church for being queer

Jesse is a queer, non-binary actor and performer. They learned to sing, and fell in love with performance, in the Pentecostal Church as a kid and after school they studied songwriting for two years at Hillsong College.

Jesse knew they were queer all that time but knew they couldn't come out and live authentically if they wanted to remain in the church.

Jesse opens up to Sean about attempting to "pray the gay away", coming out via Facebook before they told their parents, and why they still miss church in spite of everything that's happened.
