Highly recommend this podcast! Love their realness to talk about big issues.
Jeff is literally me right now. Like I can relate so much with Jeff his feelings and all. I grew up non denominational full gospel- preacher grandkid - so much I could say but I hope to connect with Jeff and Jourdan and talk more - so much here but such an amazing feeling to hear all of this!!!

I appreciate their openness and vulnerability. However, I fundamentally disagree with Jourdan and Jeff about who Jesus is, and I think this podcast is damaging for gay Christians– who I believe should be openly affirmed within the church and should live as God created them to be.

He even pokes fun of her for being inexperienced)... more
So thankful to see mega church leaders boldly speaking out in truth and love on this subject. The LGBTQ community needs the church to love them enough to tell them Jesus has a better way for them to find what they’re truly needing which is His love. His ways. The only thing that brings true freedom.
I admire their honesty and bravery in putting this all out there. But denying who you really are and calling it a miracle? As a person of faith this just misses the mark to me. But I hope they are as truly as happy as they make it seem, as someone happily married with children I have a hard time understanding how they can be truly happy and fulfilled when they are both pretending they don’t need/want a major part of a healthy, successful marriage. However they have a beautiful family and I t... more
