How Humility, Not Pride, Saved Jim From an Gay Lifestyle

Jim Childs explains how God brought him to repentance after 30 years in the LGBTQ community.

 

“All of a sudden I’m seeing a man sitting in front of me. I don’t just see the Bible, just an issue, I see this guy and he is saying he is sorry. . . . He said, ‘I’d like to get to know you guys,’ and with that we began to trust him.”

Jim Childs had immersed himself in a gay lifestyle for 30 years, searching for connection through a long-term relationship with his male partner. When a friend offered to help him explore the Christian faith, Jim initially resisted. How could he find his way to God when all he heard was condemnation?

Through his compelling story, Jim offers insight into the crucial role of discipleship in helping others overcome LGBTQ identities and behaviors.
