I Don’t Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST

Teen with Lesbian Desires Asks What Could Be Wrong About Love?

48 min • 14 februari 2025

What could possibly be wrong with "following our heart"? Isn't that what culture always tells us to do? In this week’s solo podcast episode, Frank responds to a troubling email from "Jane", a self-identified lesbian teenager struggling with conflict at home since coming out to her mother. Tune in as Frank walks through a series of thought-provoking questions designed to help Jane reflect on the long-term consequences of her choices. During the episode, Frank tackles key questions, including:

Why is theology the foundation of all knowledge?
Why shouldn’t people define themselves by their sexual desires?
What should (and shouldn't) parents do if your child comes out to you as same-sex attracted?
Should your attractions determine your actions?
What are three reasons why homosexuality falls short of natural marriage?
Do sexual desires ever change over time?
If no one is harmed, why shouldn’t people simply follow their hearts?
How do sexual patterns among homosexuals differ from those in committed heterosexual relationships?
