Encouragement to the Gay and Gender-Confused: Steve Goble Interview

I was so blessed to chat with one of my top commenters on my videos, Steve Goble! Though he came to repentance later in life, he's an ex-gay veteran who's experienced great growth and boldly calls the church to reject compromise and confusion, and instead embrace pursuit of transformation! We lay out some important distinctives in this conversation!
