One Moore Perspective

My wife joins me to talk about Twitter & devotions & how to "procure" a wife.

Some thoughts on Pray Away, a new film depicting the stories of former leaders of the ex-gay movement. Some more thoughts about pursuing marriage as a person who experiences same-sex temptations. 

Patrick and Shelby Ray moved to North Minneapolis in 2015 to plant a church. They purposefully waited until 2021 to have their first public worship service. Listen in to find out why.

Thoughts on: sin that leads to death, sin that doesn't, and part of God's design for the perseverance of his people. 1 John 5:16-17. 

When I say this is my story, I do not mean, "this is the story of my conversion." It is that. But it's more than that.

I think what people need to hear most is: 1. what life looks like *post-conversion* for persons who experience SSA, especially in terms of pursuing and entering into marriage, and 2. how Jesus sustains and satisfies weak saints as they struggle toward him.

This is that.

Thoughts on same-sex attraction, sinful desires, willful sin, and repentance. 

Most evangelicals agree that same-sex behavior is sinful. But what about unchosen same-sex desires? If they are sinful, does that mean same-sex attracted people are sentenced to a life of misery and self-hatred?

Passages referenced in last half of the episode: 

Romans 7:24, Hebrews 12:14, Philippians 2:12-13, Colossians 2:12-14, Romans 8:12, Jude 24, John 17:3 

I hope Beth Moore listens to this. 

Is "taking a stand" against censorship on social media the only good and faithful response for the Christian? Or can we avoid topics like transgenderism on Twitter with our integrity intact?
