Same-Sex Attraction - A Man's Perspective

MARKINC Ministries is committed to leaning into the pain of life experiences that often go unnoticed by the church and society in general. The Help and Hope audio library addresses life’s darkest circumstances that are difficult to discuss yet we are called on to help one another walk by faith. Each Help and Hope interview is a real-life testimony of someone who has walked through these experiences and has learned to see when the lights went out.

You can be one of the first ones to listen to these stories when you

 We launch a new resource ever month, each one designed to help turn hearts toward Jesus.

In this transparent and sometimes emotional interview,  Chuck talks with three men and their counselor about their struggles with same-sex attraction. No question was off limits and listeners will hear these men address such issues as how people who loved them treated them even though they disagreed with their life choices; how their churches responded; and ways they were hurt by people who claimed to be Christians.

They talk about their greatest misconception about God’s view of sex and homosexuality and how same-sex attraction is similar to other sinful choices.

Listeners will be encouraged to hear scriptural principles that will help guide relationships with loved ones who identify themselves as gay and how parents can create a safe place for their kids to talk to them about same-sex attraction.

Like all of our Help and Hope resources, this interview goes beyond a discussion of the life crises and digs deep into how each of us can grow in our own walk of faith as we process and face the challenges of living by grace in our messy world.

We know this is a difficult topic and most people will be reluctant to share it on their social media page for fear of offending someone they love. But the beauty of these resources is that people can listen to them in the privacy of their own home, while exercising or riding in their car. And the powerful redemption message might be exactly what they need to make it through the next day. In an effort to offer the same help and hope he experienced, one man shared the resource eon his Facebook page with these comments:

This is a new audio resource from MARKINC Ministries hosted by Chuck Betters, pertaining to same-sex attraction from the man's perspective . I highly recommend this as it delves into the struggles that we go through in striving to live our lives for Christ, while still dealing with the desires of the flesh as a result of our brokenness. It also deals with not isolating ourselves but to be transparent with others. Satan wants nothing more than to make us feel that we need to carry this burden alone. It's also important for the church body to know that we need their love and support. Also, in many ways, the church is the family that we/I will never have via a wife and kids. Whether or not you have a close friend or family member who is going through this, I recommend your listening to this resource as it may help you understand the struggles we go through and the hope we have in our Lord and Savior.

Bless you and yours in Christ Jesus!

I encourage you to share this post widely, publicly or privately. It is a message filled with hope, help, encouragement, and unconditional love.

In His grip,
