Becket is a speaker and author who travels around to share his story of redemption and tackle the topic of homosexuality. I’ve gotten to know Becket over the years. Recently, he came to Real Life Church to speak. I knew that I had to have him share his experience with you as well.\nBecket is open about his journey through being same-sex attracted and his encounter with God that set him on a new path. And I know there may be some of you who have family members and friends... maybe it's you who is trying to figure out what the truth is around identity and sexuality and where God stands on it. I think you're gonna be blessed by what Becket has to say, so listen to our conversation and feel free to share it with someone you know.\nSpecial thanks to BELAY Solutions for sponsoring this week’s episode!\nHighlights\nBecket’s Beginnings - 3:44\nGrowing up in Texas\nWrestling with his identity and sexual orientation\nBecket’s Encounter with Jesus - 14:58\nWrestling with the meaning of life\nA chance encounter in a coffee shop\nWhat Becket's encounter with God meant for his new life.\nWalking Towards a New Identity - 31:10\nProcessing through the questions people may have around homosexuality.\nBalancing grace and truth.\n\nResources\nEpisode Transcript\nBecket Cook’s Website\nA Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption by Becket Cook\nThe Becket Cook Show on Youtube\nConnect with BecketInstagram\nTwitter\nFacebook","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/4jsvPXXohdxKsIvkXM-vy5MBW3to7I7Cy-pXgTjeuYI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zYzk0/M2M4YzU5NTNiMzU4/Y2Y4MThmYjkyMDEw/ZDViYi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
