In today’s episode, Becket Cook sits down with Jay Dios, who shares his powerful testimony of growing up in a conservative Christian home, struggling with pornography and same-sex attraction from a young age, entering a same-sex marriage, and ultimately experiencing a radical transformation through Jesus Christ. Jay opens up about deconstructing his faith, embracing affirming theology, reading God and the Gay Christian, and even meeting Matthew Vines in person—before God revealed the truth that led him to repentance, freedom, and surrender.

Jay explains what ultimately compelled him to divorce his husband, how Scripture reclaimed authority in his life, and why faithfulness to God—not identity or desire—became the turning point. Now rooted at Passion City Church, Jay reflects on obedience, contentment, sanctification, and living for eternity rather than cultural approval.

This conversation is for anyone wrestling with faith and sexuality, confused by affirming theology, or seeking clarity on biblical truth, repentance, and redemption through Jesus Christ.

In today's episode, Becket Cook sits down with Tia Arshad for a deeply moving and powerful testimony of God's radical rescue. Born in Libya to a Christian family, abandoned as a young child in a Pakistani boarding school after her mother's sudden death, and later facing rejection and hardship in the UK, Tia spent eight years living as a lesbian—finding temporary belonging in gay clubs amid heavy drinking, chain-smoking, and profound emptiness. Yet through a series of divine interventions, terrifying dreams, and a life-altering supernatural moment, God dramatically broke through, leading her to encounter Jesus in Scripture and walk away from that life entirely.

This raw conversation uncovers the deep impact of trauma, the emptiness of alternative lifestyles, and the unmatched freedom and satisfaction found only in Christ—no going back to “Egypt.” A must-watch if you're wrestling with same-sex attraction, rejection, addiction, doubt in God's love, or wondering how the church can better welcome those leaving LGBTQ+ identities.

In today's episode, Becket Cook talks with former gay man Josh Duiker who shares his powerful testimony of leaving the LGBTQ lifestyle after a dramatic encounter with Jesus at age 40. From growing up secular and struggling with same-sex attraction, addiction, and promiscuity in Los Angeles, to attending a progressive gay-affirming church in Hollywood, Josh reveals how he discovered it was a false gospel and ultimately found true freedom at a biblical church.

In this emotional interview, Josh opens up about his radical salvation experience alone in his apartment, why progressive "gay Christianity" couldn't satisfy his hunger for truth, how reading Scripture and solid preaching exposed the deception, leaving the gay lifestyle, facing backlash from friends and family, and embracing biblical faith.

A must-listen story of redemption, grace, and the transforming power of the real Jesus Christ.

Author and pastor Jamie Bambrick joins Becket Cook to talk about his new book, “Set Free in a World of Chaos and Confusion: Only Jesus Can Save and Set You Free.” They discuss how the gospel offers real freedom in a culture that’s deeply confused about identity, sexuality, and truth.

Jamie shares the story behind his viral response to the “He Gets Us” Super Bowl ad and why a Jesus who only “relates” to us—but never calls us out of sin—falls short of the biblical Christ. From there, the conversation moves into the big questions: God, evil, suffering, and why our intuitions about right and wrong point beyond a purely material universe.

Along the way, you’ll hear powerful glimpses of lives radically changed by Christ and a clear, hopeful explanation of what it actually means to be “set free.” If you’re a skeptic, a struggler, or a believer looking for clarity in the chaos, this episode will challenge you to reconsider who Jesus is and what He offers.

In this episode of The Becket Cook Show, Becket sits down with Vlad, a young man who was convinced he was born gay and lived that identity for years—secretly, painfully, and hopelessly. Growing up in rural Romania with a nominal faith, Vlad slowly fell into pornography, hookup culture, and deep isolation. His life spiraled in Germany where depression and addiction took over, even while he still called himself a “Christian.”

But then something unexpected happened. A testimony on this very channel interrupted everything. That video led to real Bible study, real confession, real community, and ultimately—a real encounter with Jesus Christ.

Vlad moved to London, walked into a global Christian gathering, and there, surrounded by believers, he finally understood the cross. He chose repentance, baptism, and a new life in Christ. Since that moment, everything is different. Temptations still exist, but he is no longer alone, no longer hopeless, and no longer defined by his past.

This is a story about identity, deception, love, spiritual warfare, and the power of God to rescue anyone. Share this with someone who needs hope.
