"A bleak but often engrossing real-life story of an eventful and sometimes-dangerous life." - Kirkus Reviews
“Sex, Drugs & Jesus is a riveting memoir that will capture your heart and take you inside the trials and tribulations of Mr. Hubert’s life. I was hooked from the first page.” - USA Today Bestselling Author, Theresa Hissong
My memoir delves into raw detail about my war with my myself. I open up about my crystal meth addiction and being a drug dealer in Houston, Tx. The pain of growing up in poverty under the hand of an abusive dad is also put on display. The time I spent serving in the Air Force during Don't Ask Don't Tell, and the promiscuity that went along with it, is divulged as well. I talk about how I received my HIV + diagnosis on a voicemail and my Hep B + diagnosis in the postal mail. My story gets more intense as I share about how I got 3 felonies, the time I spent in jail, and how I ended up homeless after S.W.A.T. kicked my door in. I talk about the biggest heartbreak in my life which happened when I was kicked out of a megachurch, that I had served with my whole soul for years, just because I am a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and refused to accept the conversion therapy package they offered.
So often people judge those who have been in similar situations. My hope is that my honesty can offer a glimpse into these issues from the inside, rather than from the outside looking in.
