Why are so many Christians compromising on LGBTQ issues? In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Becket Cook sits down with Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us, to unpack the cultural, theological, and relational pressures that lead Christians to cave, and why holding firm to biblical truth is both necessary and loving. They discuss Chip and Joanna Gaines, the dangers of normalization in media, the slippery slope to apostasy, and how to stand for truth without sacrificing compassion. Whether you're a parent, pastor, or just navigating these issues in your own circle, this episode will challenge and equip you with truth, grace, and conviction.
