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.
One of the myths about change-exploring therapy for unwanted same-sex attraction or gender identity conflicts (what our opponents call "conversion therapy" ) is that such therapy is based on "prejudicial assumptions." But I will show in this video, by using the very principles of multicultural therapy, is that the opposite is true. In fact, authentic multicultural therapy will allow, protect, and even promote change-exploring therapy for people with SSA and/or gender dysphoria who do not identify as LGBTQ+.

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.

To celebrate my 40th birthday, I went skydiving with my younger brother, Dan (@thepulse87 ), something I've dreamed of doing for years! In reflecting on this, I want to encourage you to find the joy in danger as you take on whatever mission God has for you. Dark times are ahead, and it calls for brave warriors in God's Kingdom!
