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.

You and your therapist can achieve this through various approaches. So, here is some guidance to help you, the client, get the most out of the experience!

Following up on my recent videos on sexual arousal templates and transformational change, here are some thoughts on what types of outcomes to expect and pursue if you seek out some sort of change. There are certain outcomes that I consider more likely based on the approach you take: a discipline or experiential approach in counseling or ministry. Let's set some realistic expectations.

In the recent debate/discussion between Bible scholar and historian Wes Huff and writer and founder of 4BiddenKnowledge Billy Carson, among the many topics explored, Billy questioned the use of masculine pronouns for God in Christianity, asserting that it justifies oppression of women. The fact that God reveals himself primarily as masculine is actually quite important to our faith. Christians need to understand not only THAT God uses masculine pronouns, but the reason WHY.
