This week on the Love & Truth Network Podcast, Garry talks with Joshua Finley of Freedom Church about growing up between church and the world, battling insecurity, fear, and the need for approval. Through spiritual mentors, God’s fatherly love, and authentic community, Joshua found healing and a deeper identity in Christ.

In part two with Brendon and Tabitha Ingraham, they share how sexual brokenness has shaped their marriage and the ongoing work God is doing to restore what has been wounded. They reflect on the failures of purity culture, the need for heart transformation, and the power of confession, accountability, and forgiveness in rebuilding trust.

In the first part of our interview with Brendon and Tabitha Ingraham from Covenant Church in Georgia, we hear how their very different childhoods led to deep wounds and struggles with sexual brokenness. They share honestly about their pain, the victories God has brought, and the unexpected way they first met.

Steve Goble of Desert Stream Ministries and Living Waters shares how childhood confusion, an unhealthy attachment to his mother, and difficulty connecting with men led to years of gender dysphoria, homosexuality, and a need for healing. Hear how he turned to embraced Christlike masculinity, and learned to keep an eye on the check engine light for God.

Andrew Comiskey, founder of Desert Stream and Living Waters, joins us to share his journey with same-sex attraction before coming to Christ, how he entered full-time Christian service, and how, with his wife's help, he started a ministry that has lasted more than 40 years. Andrew and Garry also discuss the world’s view versus the church’s view on same-sex attraction and sexual brokenness.

In part two of our discussion with Kyle Malkin, he reiterates the importance of allowing God to give and take away freely in all aspects of our lives; which provides a Godly perspective that rises above our worldly understanding. Kyle and Garry also offer a sneak peek into the new "Overcoming Porn" e-series we are developing. We hope this helps you celebrate the victories. Thanks for listening!

Kyle Malkin returns to continue his story of transformation. He shares with us his journey to freedom from sexual addiction, the importance of wise counsel through Godly mentorship, and the beautiful story of how he met his wife. Kyle offers several examples of how getting out of our own way can open the door to something far better that lines up with God's plans.

When we talk with Christian's, we often focus on denomination, rules, and church activities, but forget the most important thing: the one truth that brings us all together. Jonathon Switzer joins us to discuss the importance of focusing on our common identity as the ekklesia—the Church, the Body of Christ—so that we can work together, be the salt of the earth, and build one another up in love.

Josh Glaser, on behalf of Regeneration Ministries, joins us this week to discuss how sexual brokenness is handled within the church, and why relationship, discipleship, and community are so essential. This conversation speaks to both married and single listeners, reminding us that God designed us to build one another up rather than remain isolated in regret and doubt.

In part two of this thoughtful conversation, Debra Baty and Garry Ingraham continue discussing medicalization versus talk therapy, including Finnish studies that support talk therapy. They also emphasize the importance of doing thorough research on both sides rather than focusing only on the negatives, and the church’s need to focus on the heart without pushing people away.
