My Interview by Beyond the Fundamentals (with Bonus Commentary)
I had such a good time being interviewed by Keving Thompson from Beyond the Fundamentals, so I'm re-presenting the interview with some bonus commentary! Probably because of how fast I spoke (LOL!), we covered a lot of ground in this interview! We discussed the contention from certain Christians against incorporating insights from psychology and neuroscience in our pastoral care and sanctification process, and how that intersects with my work with people dealing with sexuality struggles, especially same-sex attraction.
