Benner was raised in a conservative Christian home, and he always knew that he was different. He was attracted to other boys, but he was afraid to come out because he knew that it would disappoint his family and friends. Benner's internal struggle was immense, and by the time he reached college, he had turned to alcohol and drugs to numb his pain.

Benner's life spiraled out of control, and he eventually lost everything. He lost his job, his friends, and his family. He was living on the streets and addicted to drugs when he finally hit bottom.

One day, Benner was walking past a church when he heard the music. He went inside, and he felt the presence of God for the first time. Benner's life began to change that day. He got sober, and he started to rebuild his life.

Benner's journey was not easy. He faced many challenges along the way, but he never gave up. He found strength in his faith, and he eventually found acceptance from his family and friends.

Naked in the Promised Land is a story of hope and resilience. It is a story that will inspire anyone who has ever struggled with their own identity or faith. Benner's story is a reminder that it is never too late to change your life.
