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.
A clip of Logan Paul's interview with pastors and apologists Cliff and Stuart Knechtle, asking them about homosexuality, went viral. And Not the Bee touted Cliffe's answer as a lesson in the hope of the Gospel and a master class in grace and truth, seasoned with salt. I think their answers show the need for Christian apologists to have a more adequate anthropology and understanding of sexuality. Let's break down their full conversation on this topic and see what we can learn.

In today's video, I chat with Sean Swart, my new online friend from South Africa! He wanted to converse about discerning if experiencing same-sex attraction is sin itself and what a transformational approach (versus the "purity culture" approach) entails. But first, we hear his powerful story of redemption! Enjoy!

Alan Chambers, the former and final president of Exodus (the premier umbrella organization for ex-gay ministries) who shut it down in 2013 and embraced pro-gay theology, was just arrested for soliciting what he believed was a 14-year-old boy, but was actually a detective. The media and LGBT activists are spinning this as an indictment against ex-gay ministries. But the fact is Chambers has been opposed to our work for at least 15 years. So, is his downfall a sign of hypocrisy or the outcome of refusing to work on his root issues and instead embracing a doctrine of "pure grace" that doesn't require repentance and transformation? Let's hear from some insiders that know more about Chambers and his tenure at Exodus.

In this extensive interview, I chat with Wayne Blakely, the founder of Know His Love Ministries and producer of "Freedom," a new documentary film investigating the attacks on "conversion therapy." Wayne shares his story of sexual brokenness and repentance. Then, for years, Wayne ran a ministry to educate his denomination about a biblical approach to homosexuality, but he would always condemn "conversion therapy" as abusive and harmful. But he realized he had been buying into propaganda when he saw an interview I did with Theology Mom, explaining the different approaches within the church regarding homosexuality. That inspired a project that spanned over three years of filming, dozens of interviews, and multiple countries. This movie features some surprising guests and covers the topic broadly and deeply.
