VIDEO: Haggard still struggles with sexuality, he says in documentary

In an HBO documentary set to air Jan. 29, disgraced evangelical leader Ted Haggard says he never claimed to be heterosexual, as was once reported, and he continues to struggle with same-sex attraction. But he's committed to living a heterosexual life because he believes it's better for children to be raised by a mother and a father.

In "The Trials of Ted Haggard," a film crew documents his and his family's day-to-day life in Arizona and Texas, where they lived after he was fired from New Life Church in November 2006 following a sexual relationship with a gay prostitute. Along the way, Haggard opens up about his lifelong battle with his sexuality and how he's drawn to the biblical passages about suffering since his relationship with prostitute Mike Jones became public.
