More than Same-Sex Attracted
Manage episode 344503592 series 3384740
If you’re a woman who loves Jesus and you find yourself attracted to other women, reconciling your “identity” may feel impossible.
The world we live in reduces who we are to the smallest sliver of our sexuality. But there’s so much more to you than being a lesbian or straight or a Christian or not.
Take some time with us to stop hiding or defining yourself. For now, set aside the condemnation you might be hearing (or assuming) and just listen for the calling.
Your identity is Sacred by Design - fuller and deeper than you may realize.
Let’s begin with a story…
Highlights
Part of Kyle’s story: “The Lord brought me to a place where I could understand His truth. And, I didn’t feel condemned by it. It was like, “I have something so much better for you. And life will be so much better and fuller for you. And, I noticed there was a change in my heart in that. And, so then I had this thing where I wanted to follow Christ.”
“It feels like here’s this huge part of myself that I have to discard and it was because I had attached my whole identity to being in same sex relationships. So now there was this feeling of my goodness who am I, who am I really. And what I discovered was how much sense does it actually make to attach your identity to your sexuality. Because I’m so much more than that."
This isn’t about your identity. This is more about what’s happening in your heart as opposed to taking what’s happening in your heart and making it your identity. This is really an invitation from God to say, “Let’s examine what’s really happening in your heart.”
Try to take the stigma from same sex attraction and ask a different question. Let’s think about what’s really happening in your heart. Your heart is telling you something. The same sex attraction is not just about being in a relationship with a woman. Your heart is saying there’s a legitimate need that you have that has not been met.
