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.

Shame and guilt are two of the most critical emotions involved in counseling, especially for addictions and sin issues. God gave us these emotions for good reasons, so we need to know what they mean, which type you're feeling, how to know you're feeling them, and what to do with them. But beware: evil manipulates these feelings to keep us in bondage.

During our semiquincentennial anniversary of the United States of America's independence, I have been so encouraged by the love for America expressed by World Cup visitors from around the globe. I wish my fellow citizens appreciated our great nation as much as these foreigners do! We have so much to love and be grateful for in the USA, but the spirit of envy threatens to destroy us.

I recently read French Catholic philosopher René Girard's 1999 book "I See Satan Fall Like Lightning," which discusses his theory of mimetic desire and rivalry, and I have some ideas about how it relates to sexual desire, attractions, and romantic relationships.
