One of my bosses is modestly homosexual (i.e. not overtly sexual - which both hetero- and homosexuals can be), and the specific issue of approval/disapproval of his lifestyle hasn't come into play in the work environment. He knows I am a Christian and probably figures I disapprove of it, and I would admit my belief that it is immoral, should he ask. However, I'm not a brow-beater or rushing to convert him, because I believe the best way to illustrate my Christianity to him is by being a conscientious, reliable, and diligent employee for him. This is particularly the case since he came from a very strictly religious home.

I worried it might be a problem when I first found out about it, but I was really able to make an impression on him with the quality of my work helping him prepare for his hearings the first 6th months of the year.
