I'm Andrew Rodriguez, a Christian therapist, speaker, and former youth pastor. In my counseling, I specialize in sexual and relational issues. PsychoBible is my outlet for discussing ideas about the intersection of Christianity and psychology, especially regarding sexuality and cultural issues.
Some topics to expect: Theology of the Body, therapy for unwanted same-sex attraction, and the culture war.
Are real men always just stoic and emotionless? In our reaction against wokeness, we must be careful not to double-down on the old rigid stereotypes of manhood that are the actual culprits of the very sexuality and gender identity problems we're trying to correct! One of the major (and early) tasks in my work with clients--especially clients with sexuality struggles--is training them to feel and deal with their emotions. The problem is they've been conditioned to suppress and dissociate from their emotions, and this leads to acting them out through addictive behaviors.

The mainstream narrative on what's labeled "conversion therapy" is a psyop. A psyop (psychological operation) or engineered reality is a largescale strategy (usually by the media, corporations, the government, or military) to hijack and manipulate people's emotions, opinions, behavior, and even sense of identity. Using Chase Hughes' (founder of NCI) video on how to discern psyops, we will see how this applies to the ubiquitous message that any form of counseling or ministry for exploring change in unwanted same-sex attraction, homosexual behavior, and gender identity conflicts is a dangerous, pervasive, and insidious threat against all people identified as LGBTQ that must be outlawed globally.

I'm excited to share this interview with Spencer Boliou! He's a Christian hip hop/R&B/folk/worship artist from Boise, ID. And he's refreshingly open about his story of experiencing same-sex attraction, identifying as a Side B "gay Christian," and then embracing the journey of transformation. I hope you will find this conversation to be enlightening and encouraging.

I'm happy to present this interview with my new friend, John Fitzpatrick, from the band JJ Fitz. We met through the First Love Unbroken conference, where I was a breakout presenter and he led worship. He has a powerful testimony of healing from childhood trauma that was at the root to his substance addictions. We discuss his journey of ups and downs, and using the gift of music to help others. I hope this conversation glorifies God and encourages you.
