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 wrapping up my discussion of the Chiles v. Salazar case at the Supreme Court, challenging Colorado's ban against "conversion therapy" (therapy to explore change in same-sex attraction and behaviors and gender identity/expression), I want to discuss two amicus briefs submitted in support of Colorado's ban. These briefs were written by ministers and counselors who claim to be "conservative, orthodox Christians" that advocate for the Side B "gay Christian" approach in the Church. They all claim to support the Church's historic understanding of sex and marriage, and yet they oppose therapy to help individuals better align with God's design and destiny for our sexuality.

Check out this interview I just did with Wayne Blakely on his Relevant Christianity channel! Man, we cover some great topics in this hour: the relationship between Christianity and psychology, the different approaches to LGBT in the church, the Chiles v. Salazar case...
Let's review this article by the Harvard Civil Rights - Civil Liberties Law Review, titled "Reparative Therapy is Legal for Adults. Here's Why it Shouldn't Be." With the US Supreme Court this week hearing arguments from Kaley Chiles' legal team at Alliance Defending Freedom against Colorado's "conversion therapy" ban for minors, it's important we understand the agenda of these bans. The LGBTQ+ activists want to remove your right to therapy that aligns with your values (the same traditional values that have undergirded civilization for millennia). To violate your rights, they have to push the narrative that all forms of change-exploring therapy are harmful. These bans have started with minors, but their goal is to outlaw it for everyone.
