  • Going Back To Being Gay...
    Feb 18 2025

    Episode 59: In this episode, I dive into a difficult but important conversation: why do so many ex-gay Christians eventually return to their former lifestyle? From emotional struggles and unbearable guilt to a lack of true support from the church, I break down the key reasons why walking away from same-sex attraction and following Christ can feel impossible for some. We’ll talk about how failures can lead to deep shame, how bad theology plays a role, and why the journey of sanctification isn’t as simple as people think. If you’ve ever wondered why so many ex-gay testimonies seem to end in relapse, or if you’re struggling with this yourself, this episode is for you.

  • The Disturbing Truth About Christian Influencers & Why I'm Done With Youtube & Ministry
    Oct 26 2024

    Episode Fifty-Seven!! In this episode, I’m getting real about my frustrations with the direction of “celebrity Christianity” and why I'm questioning my role in it. After years of meeting other Christian influencers and seeing mainstream mega-church culture up close, I’ve noticed a troubling shift—a focus on fame, profit, and popularity over true biblical teaching and disciple-making. Where’s the obedience to God’s Word? Where’s the dedication to making disciples?

    Join me as I unpack why this lack of biblical literacy in our community has led me to consider stepping back from YouTube and ministry altogether. It’s a hard conversation, but one that needs to happen. Are we really following Jesus, or are we just chasing influence?
