A new Supreme Court ruling on conversion therapy could have far-reaching consequences—not just for LGBTQ people, but for how we understand therapy itself. In this episode, Josh and Rachel break down what actually happened, why it matters, and how it impacts faith, mental health, and the lives of queer Christians.

In this episode, Josh sits down with Dr. Sandra Anderson, therapist, author, and HIV advocate, to explore transgenerational trauma, epigenetics, and the ways shame and unhealed wounds echo across generations. Together they discuss how healing happens through radical acceptance, spiritual renewal, and the church becoming an ICU of love where people are restored to wholeness.

In this episode, hear a sermon from Josh on spiritual formation and soul care, exploring what it truly means to become whole before God, ourselves, and others. Drawing from the opening chapters of 2 Corinthians, this reflection invites listeners to consider how God forms us not through strength or certainty, but through presence, suffering, and deep care for the soul.

In this episode, I share a sermon reflecting on Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan and its deeper connection to the command to love our neighbor. Drawing parallels between how Samaritans were viewed in Jesus’ time and how queer Christians are often treated in the church today, this episode is an invitation to re-examine who we imagine as “neighbor,” how Jesus consistently redefines belonging, and what faithfulness looks like when love costs us something.

In this episode, I'm sharing a sermon I preached earlier this year. Drawing on musical theater, I explore the question: What is the difference between a man and a monster? Together we trace how fear, power, apathy, and self-preservation shape the monstrous patterns we see in Scripture, in history, and in ourselves. And yet, through the humility and mercy of Jesus, we discover a God who refuses to become a monster and instead makes a way for monsters to become human again. My hope is that this sermon helps you reflect on your own heart, your own temptations toward self-protection, and the redemptive invitation of Christ to rebuild with compassion, courage, and hope.
