Attraction, Identity, and the Church as Home

In this episode Eliza talks with Adam Westlake, who shares some of his own story of healing. Adam talks vulnerably about his own struggles with singleness and sexuality, as well as the ways in which he has cultivated a sense of family within the Church. He gives us helpful ways to think about how to come alongside each other in order to forge bonds and grow together in the faith. To learn more about Adam and his counseling ministry, click HERE .
