Should we really believe what Scripture says about homosexuality? If you listened to the end of my most recent episode featuring gay (and openly sexually active) creator Melody Rachel, you know that MY answer is YES. Though I shared my own thoughts on that episode, I also wanted to share a few additional perspectives. To that end, I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Autumn Joy, whose testimony truly blew my mind!

Autumn and I covered quite a bit, including God’s very intentional design, trauma and psychosexual development, the inner workings of desire (and why some men seem to think with one particular organ), the connection between religious spirits, legalism, and homosexuality, and the reliability of God’s Word. This was such a fun and God-glorifying interview — I hope you enjoy it!

This is a storytelling podcast, not a debate podcast, but there's a first time for everything! In this episode, I chat with YouTuber, podcaster, and performer Melody Rachel about homosexuality, holy Scripture, and why we disagree.

Whether you agree with me, Melody, or neither, listen closely and think through your (possibly emotional) reaction! And if you're feeling extra generous, share your thoughts with me. Your words just might make it into my next episode...!

I chat with Rwandan genocide survivor, author, and human rights advocate Jeanne Celestine Lakin about the INSANE moves of God that preserved her life. We're talking real deal miracles like God telling her where to hide and shielding her from men with machetes… yeah. Jeanne shares all about her life pre- and post-genocide, the move to America, her ongoing humanitarian work, the miracle of her baby boy, and then… prophesies over me?!

For years now, I've been watching brother-sister filmmaking duo Noah and Jenna Sue Bennett craft their forthcoming TV pilot ANTI. The pilot — which they produced alongside The Chosen's Justen Overlander — chronicles the life and temptations of the Antichrist. WHY the Antichrist?! In this episode, the Bennetts explain their motivations, and what the Antichrist's humanity means for the rest of us.

Check out the ANTI trailer, and learn more about their mission!

I've received a number of interview pitches over the years, but this was one of the wildest I’ve ever read:

“I started using drugs at 14 years old and began worshipping Satan shortly afterward. I eventually got to the point where I had a new sexual partner about every week, sold ounces of cocaine, used heroin and meth and a slew of other drugs daily, and continued worshipping demons for power and fame. I had supernatural experiences regularly. I am skipping a lot of details, but I ended up having an overdose that changed everything.”

Needless to say, I responded to that email and I’m so glad I did!

Though Mason’s story is a jaw-dropper, it’s not just that. Ultimately, it’s a picture of how grief, abuse, and cultish theology led a young boy to go his own way — until he finally found his way back into the arms of his loving and impossibly patient Savior.

Check out Mason's podcast, Sovereign Fire Studios!

In 2008, Real Housewives of Orange County star Gretchen Rossi tragically lost her fiancé Jeff. The immensity of Gretchen's grief led her into a long season of anger toward God -- but as she shares in this interview, God could handle it. Not only was the Lord capable of sticking near to Gretchen in that season — He also had a redemptive plan.

In this episode, Gretchen and I delve into her decision to join the Housewives franchise, the CHAOS that ensued, and how God used it all to prove Himself faithful. We also discuss the media's demonic influences (and the need to guard our hearts), how the Lord uses our suffering to produce character, and the true meaning of surrender.
