info_outlineIn this deeply personal and wide-ranging conversation, Justin Greenfield shares his journey of faith, healing, and self-understanding after years of struggling with same-sex attraction. Together, he and Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse explore why simply telling people to “just stop” often fails, how childhood wounds shape adult struggles, and what real compassion, science, and Christian sanctification actually look like. This interview challenges popular narratives, offers hope rooted in truth, and points toward peace that comes not from denying pain—but from facing it.
Justin Greenfield is an author, speaker, and spiritual director who received his master’s in spiritual formation from the Institute for Spiritual Formation at Talbot School of Theology and also holds a 4-year degree in missions. In 2003, God revealed His love to Justin while a student at Johns Hopkins University. God provided key insights that led him out of homosexuality. Today, Justin speaks on issues related to church fellowship, compassion, sanctification, evangelism, and sexual identity. Justin has been speaking at churches, conferences, and on radio stations nationwide since 2004. Justin runs a spiritual direction and coaching practice for those looking for support on their own sanctification journey.
If we don’t speak first, the Enemy wins. If we wait for those struggling to come to us, we’re more likely to lose them to the Devil. Here’s the problem: the overwhelming majority of people struggling with homosexuality aren’t revealing themselves to anyone in the church. They want to be invisible, because they are terrified of what will happen if somebody finds out their secret. Why risk facing shame and contempt, especially when they’re not seeing changed lives of other homosexuals in their church?
The solution: we speak redemptive truths over broad groups of people in our lives. That way, we reach those in need without them having to raise their hand and say, “Here I am!” If you read this book, pick up some great insights that can change lives, but simply wait for those who need help to come to you, then the Devil has already won those in your life. You must proactively speak holistic, redemptive insights to your circles of influence, whether that’s a pulpit, a small group, or the dinner table.
So who is one person you can share this information with, that homosexuality is typically developmental and the result of a number of statistically relevant factors, oftentimes including same-sex love-hunger? Who can you pass this video along to who may not struggle with homosexuality themselves, but just like everyone these days, they need to understand it? People need love and the lack of insights devastates lives. How can you say something to one person today?
