Our culture, ourselves, and our experiences are significant influences of how we think about ourselves. It has left many people really confused. Gay, gay-Christian, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgender, gender fluid and more. A primary purpose of this blog is to challenge others including myself about our beliefs about our identities; is what we are thinking basedContinue reading “In His Image”

Help me Understand
The draw to start this blog spawned from a growing realization the power behind an individual’s story or personal testimony of their life journey. I found myself often intrigued to hear the stories of others struggles with sexual brokenness. What could I glean from their experiences to help me on my journey? I wanted aContinue reading “Help me Understand”
Accountabliity to God
Perhaps this isn’t any revelation to you my readers but I share anyway. ;). As noted in my recent entries I have found myself in a season of struggle with old sinful patterns of behavior. In the good moments of this season I have been trying to figure out the why. In that the HolyContinue reading “Accountabliity to God”
Desire Gone Mad
Okay, my title is actually a quote or phrase from Dr. Dan Allender’s reflections within the dramatic documentary called The Heart of Man. I remember it because it was a very vivid and accurate definition of lust that I connected with. It certainly describes what would often be happening in my mind when I wasContinue reading “Desire Gone Mad”
See Me?!
In recent weeks I have experienced a good healthy dose of deflation of pride. In retrospect I believe this Covid 19 business provided an opportunity for Satan to engage in his subtle trickery. With seemingly endless days of little contact with people it became quite easy to focus on self. Did I realize it atContinue reading “See Me?!”

Here goes! As I respond to this question, I sincerely recognize there is quite a range of views and thoughts on this topic. As a result I do want to approach the subject sensitively and with a Biblical view. Many people’s stories of their sexuality are prefaced with statements such “I have always felt thisContinue reading “Born Gay?”
Imagination & Wonder
Earlier today I was watching a message from Ed Buch of Pure Life Ministries. A segment of his message grabbed my thoughts. I will share some personal reflections based on his thoughts. Imagination & Wonder – a gift from God. I had never really considered it as a gift but in the right place IContinue reading “Imagination & Wonder”
Truth: Thought Choice
Thought choice?! A few years ago I connected with a ministry called Free Indeed based on a referral from Restored Hope Network. I enrolled in The Freedom Fighter program which is a 20 week coaching program for those seeking freedom from sexual sin. As part of the program I read through the book At theContinue reading “Truth: Thought Choice”
Truth: Deceitful Heart
Perhaps I have shared some thoughts on this before; nonetheless its worth repeating. It’s worth repeating as I need to remind myself of this truth: Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? Sometimes I find myself embattled with desires and struggle to understand why I am seemingly naturally inclined toContinue reading “Truth: Deceitful Heart”
