In today’s episode, Becket chats with Dr. Corey Miller, the president and CEO of Ratio Christi. <br />
<br />
Ratio Christi wants to keep students strong in their faith so they can withstand the challenges they face as they go out into the world. We do this in three ways.<br />
<br />
Arm Students With Reasons to Follow Christ<br />
We bring faith and logic together to give students thought-out reasons for following Jesus Christ. Our goal is to help Christians work through their doubts, and ultimately share Christ with their peers.<br />
<br />
Equip Professors with Tools to Share Their Faith<br />
With the right encouragement, resources, and platform, professors can share their own faith with the students around them and be a light within their spheres of influence. We help provide these tools.<br />
<br />
Plant University Clubs Nationwide and Around the World<br />
University students are questioning purpose, faith, and identity. Our nationwide clubs provide a safe place to ask apologetics questions (and give leaders resources to tackle them with confidence).<br />

ABOUT BECKET:<br />
Becket Cook was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. He attended Jesuit College Preparatory<br />
School of Dallas. After graduating from college, Becket moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of writing and acting, finding success in both. He eventually went on to become a production designer working with the top photographers and directors in the world on fashion shoots for magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and for ad campaigns such as Gap, L'Oréal Paris, and Nike.<br />
<br />
Finding a new sense of freedom in L.A., Becket also fully engaged in his new life as a gay man. He had a series of many relationships with men throughout the next fifteen years. <br />
In September of 2009, Becket met a stranger at a coffee shop in Silver Lake who invited him to his church in Hollywood called Reality L.A. Becket reluctantly agreed to attend the service. After hearing the sermon that Sunday, Becket was utterly transformed by the gospel and gave his life to Christ. He also knew on that day when God revealed Himself to him that homosexuality was a sin and that he could no longer live that life. Becket was more than happy to count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus his Lord.<br />
<br />
Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences helping believers (and non-believers) understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally, and personally. Balancing grace and truth when teaching on this subject is of primary importance. His goal is to challenge the current cultural narrative about sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular by demonstrating through his personal testimony and biblical truths that, yes, homosexuality is still a sin, and that following Christ is infinitely more satisfying and joyous.<br />
<br />
He has lived all over the world in major cities such as Rome, Vienna, and Tokyo.<br />
<br />
Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of Arts in Theology. <br />
<br />
Becket’s book, A Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption, with a <br />
foreword by Francis Chan, published by Thomas Nelson, released July 30, 2019.<br />
