The DEVASTATING Consequences of Misunderstanding DISCIPLESHIP

Struggling with my own journey of same-sex attraction, I once believed that my persistent desires meant God must be okay with it. In this episode of Calibrate Conversations, we unpack the story of a woman who arrived at a similar conclusion after years of prayer and self-reflection. We delve into the challenging yet liberating truth that God's promises aren't about removing our struggles but rather empowering us to surrender and live in obedience. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural references, we explore how daily surrender, community, confession, and accountability are vital parts of the discipleship process, leading to genuine transformation and a life of peace with Christ.

We also address the psychological toll of concealing one's sexuality and the freedom that comes with living authentically within a Christian community. The weight of others' opinions can be crushing, but anchoring our identity in Christ brings unparalleled relief. Furthermore, we tackle the controversial topic of conversion therapy, separating harmful misconceptions from the true journey of spiritual growth. By examining the choices we do have in living a life aligned with faith, we emphasize the importance of building a compassionate, grace-filled community where authenticity and support can truly thrive.

Join us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality!
