In today's episode, Becket Cook sits down with Jess Darnell for a powerful Christian testimony of redemption and God's amazing grace. Raised in a Christian home in Nashville, Jess spent 15 years as a prodigal living as a gay man in London—pursuing drama school, intense same-sex relationships, the party scene, drugs, Pride celebrations, and even occult practices—before hitting rock bottom and rediscovering the Bible.
This raw, honest conversation explores his journey from the LGBTQ lifestyle to freedom in Jesus Christ, the conflict between flesh and Spirit from Galatians 5, leaving behind a life of bondage, and why he now boldly declares that "being gay is a colossal waste of time." Warning: some moments get graphic and spicy, but the story of transformation, reconciliation, and eternal hope will leave you inspired. Don't miss this life-changing ex-gay testimony!
