Episode 224: Identity, Sexuality and Anxiety

1 hour 2 minutes

Overwhelming and growing concerns around anxiety, identity, sexuality, and gender confusion are a few of the topics that we are venturing down today. Join us in this honest, real and thoughtful conversation as we seek to understand the current state of the Church (capital C) and the cultural needs of our times.

Aaron has been the Worship Arts Pastor at Rolling Hills Community Church in outside Portland, OR since 2003 where he leads worship and shares teaching responsibilities. Before pastoring at Rolling Hills, Aaron spent several years in Nashville, TN working as an accountant for RCA/Sony/Arista Records, as well as performing on stage and in the studio. He’s been writing and leading music for the greater Church for over 25 years, exploring the unique role that music plays in our understanding of God and our connection to Him. In 2016, he released an album called ‘HYMNS’ that revisits many of the songs that were formative in his own faith journey and are now part of his family’s life. He’s finishing up his Master’s in Applied Biblical Leadership program at Western Seminary and is married to his beautiful bride, Christina and raising three teen daughters where he tries to assail them with his quality Dad Jokes.
