Dr. Rosaria Margaretha Champagne Butterfield

In 1997, Dr. Rosaria Margaretha Champagne Butterfield had it all.

A full professorship of English at Syracuse University. Two beautiful houses in town. A committed relationship with a woman named T. And a sense of fulfillment from her activism in the local LGBTQ community.

But then: she threw it all away to convert to Christianity, marry a man, and become a pastor's wife and homeschool mom.

What does Rosaria's story tell us about how evangelicals view LGBTQ people? Why does that matter? And in today's deeply transphobic political landscape, what can Rosaria tell us about where we're headed?
