  • EP 30: God I Can’t Be Straight, My Dangerous Prayer

    I prayed a dangerous prayer that changed everything. In 2023, I found myself lost, questioning my identity, purpose, and faith. But in my brokenness, I encountered the love of God in the most profound way. I surrendered my life to Christ, asking Him to heal me, transform my heart, desires, and identity. God didn’t ask me to fix myself first—He simply called me to come to Him, just as I was.

  • EP 29: If I Have Same-Sex Temptations, Am I Truly Free in Christ?

    Many believers wonder: If I still struggle with same-sex temptation, am I really free? The truth is, we can be delivered from our demons, yet still face temptation. Our sin nature—rooted in Adam’s fall—means we will always experience desires that stem from our flesh. But through Jesus, the second Adam, we have redemption and the power to overcome sin.


    Even Jesus was tempted, yet He did not sin (Hebrews 4:15). Temptation is inevitable, but through the Holy Spirit, we have the strength to resist and walk in self-control (1 Corinthians 10:13). Freedom in Christ doesn’t mean the absence of temptation—it means the ability to choose holiness despite it.


    To say same-sex temptations aren’t "normal" can leave people discouraged in their journey with Christ. The truth is, every believer faces struggles. Our role as the body of Christ is to welcome, disciple, and walk with people through the process of sanctification.

  • EP 27: I Used to be Gay Now I Like Women

    I like women now and I want to be married.  I thought I was born this way… until I met Jesus. For years, I believed my identity was set in stone, but everything changed when I encountered the love of God. As I surrendered my life to Christ, He began to transform my heart, my desires, and my identity in ways I never thought possible.  Richard shares his first crush and also prays against the lie that former queer individuals won't be married if God wills it.

  • EP 26: Christians Are Bullies

    Why do Christians fight each other more than anyone else? The gossip, judgment, and manipulation inside the Church is real—and it’s pushing people away from Jesus.


    There’s a whole generation coming back to Christ, but when they do, they’re met with criticism instead of grace. So how do we handle it? Let’s break it down through Mark 3 and talk about the religious spirit wrecking the Church.

  • EP 25: God Wants You to Dance

    Some Christians are outraged over a dance video... but did you know the Bible actually commands us to praise God with dance? 🕺🔥 This isn’t just personal preference—it’s biblical! From King David dancing before the Lord to the walls of Jericho falling after acts of worship, movement has always been a powerful way to glorify God. But today, some people call it 'worldly' or even 'wrong.' So, is dance really a part of worship, or have we let a religious spirit steal our joy? Let's break it down with scripture!"

  • EP 24: Anointing Oil is Biblical, Not Witchcraft

    A Christian influencer anoints herself with oil, quoting scripture, and was accused of Witchcraft by a Christian Media company and the internet exploded. Richard goes through scripture to show how Anointing Oil is biblical and is a symbol of the nature of the Holy Spirit and why we use it today.


    Spoiler alert: If the disciples used anointing oil to heal the sick, raise the dead, and cast out demons. We do, too. Discipleship hasn't ended. We are in the age of the Holy Spirit, where we do get "powers" called gifts from the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit are in FULL operation.

  • EP 22: Effiminate Men Wont Be in Heaven

    So, what does 1 Corinthians 6:9 mean by 'effeminate'? Is it about personality traits or gestures? The answer is No. The bible doesnt define effiminate as feminine.


    Stick with me, because in this video, we’re diving into the Scriptures, the original Greek, and even biblical examples to separate cultural myths from biblical truth. By the end, I promise you’ll have a fresh perspective on what it really means to be biblical manhood.

  • EP 21: Be A Man Not Gay

    "In a world where masculinity is often misunderstood, what if the ultimate model of manhood isn’t found in sports, strength, or success, but in the life of Jesus Christ?


    Today, we’re diving deep into what it truly means to be a man of God. We’ll explore how to move beyond the world's standards and embrace the biblical call to lead, protect, and serve with strength and compassion. It’s time to redefine manhood — not by the world’s rules, but by God’s plan."
