Same-Sex Attracted and a Christian. Now What?

In this episode, I provide examples of behaviors and attitudes that take hold of a Christian (born again) when the deceitfulness of the "so-called" little sins takes root and becomes a lifestyle that drains the vitality of their relationship with God. I apologize that a news bulletin popped up on the screen, preventing me from closing the recording as I normally would have.  Email: denny...

I've recorded this episode using the Song of Solomon Chapter 2:13: "Take for us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vineyards [vineyards of our love]," as a metaphor for how the deceitfulness of sin - the so-called little sins - drains and weakens our relationship with God - and the vitality of the church as a whole.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

This is Part B of "Is the USA as a Nation in 2026 Included in Romans 1:16-32: God's Wrath?" In this episode, using Scripture that reveals God's wrath poured out on entire nations and cities, I ask:  If the USA is under God's wrath, will He remove it? And why?  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

Please check out this episode for the answer. God's word will speak for itself.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

This episode is a sequel to "What Defines a Gay Affirming Church in the Context of Scripture is Frightening." And what Scripture says about so-called gay pastors who celebrate their "gayness" with their partners in the pulpit on Sunday morning is more frightening - the same is true without a partner. If you've listened to the episodes that chronicle my life, I would be the...

What do I mean by a gay affirming church? It is defined in Jude 1:4 and Titus 2:11-12. Please continue to find out. And yes - it is frightening!  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

The verses that gave me the audacity to record this podcast are Judges 6: 25-26 and Romans 8:28-31. I pray that this episode will birth "audacity" in you.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

This episode is a follow-up to Your Life on Earth is Precious to God . Realizing that Dennis Belkofer, with all my sins and desires of the flesh, is a gift to Jesus melted my heart - wanting to please Him more than ever by obeying Him. If you've been born again, you, too, are a gift to Jesus. From one gift to another gift - and from my heart (the new one in Christ) to your heart. Dennis Email...

So far, this is the shortest episode that I've recorded - and one of the most loving. In short, this episode is about growing up to be a child. Thanks for checking it out.    Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

In this episode, I share why I believe, speaking from experience, that a support group for Christians struggling with same-sex attraction is not a good idea - and what I believe is the reason why a pastor would promote it.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

In this episode, I compare cruising, wanting to pick up someone for sex (same sex and opposite sex), to a hungry lion inside of us wanting to use us to devour someone sexually.  And I share examples from my life, now repented of, and hating the wicked and disgusting pleasure of devouring/defiling another man's body and my own. In Genesis 4:7, God told Cain, “Sin crouches at the door, and its...

For some reason, the battery in my computer is low. Not sure why, because it's plugged in. Please go right to the episode. And I hope it challenges, blesses, and encourages you. Dennis Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

I am happy to strongly recommend purchasing the following books to help you deal with your own battle with the flesh. They can be purchased online.  In this episode, I provide excerpts from each of them: The Mortification of Sin: John Owen; The Enemy Within:  Straight Talk About the Power and Defeat of Sin : Kris Lundgaard; Hacking Agag to Pieces (a small but powerful booklet):  John MacArthur; Th...

I suggest you listen to this episode without my introduction. The episode speaks for itself. It is not my intention to throw stones at pastors and church leaders -  but to simply tell the truth for the greater good of the church. Thank you! Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

For years, decades, the evangelical church treated homosexuality as almost a sin not covered in the cross. And acted as if there were no born-again believers who struggled with same-sex attraction. The silence was damaging. I've lived through it. Sprinkle is exposing it, and eyes are being opened within the evangelical framework to the truth. But there's a problem: Sprinkle's remedy...

It's a call based on concern for him - not to hurt him. Please listen. Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

This episode is the fourth in a series.  I point out that Sprinkle categorizes humanity in general as gay and straight, and Christians as either gay or straight, which is non-biblical and damaging to the health of secular society and the church. Also, his defining same-sex attraction as a sexual orientation that is not sinful falls short of the Greek word that is translated into English as sin. It...

I just finished recording Part 2. If you have not listened to the initial episode and Part 2, I recommend checking out the first one and then Part 2. However, it won't hurt to begin with this episode and backtrack; I provide a review of what I covered in preceding episodes.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

In the first episode, of which this is the second of a series, I explained that the Upside-Down Kingdom Bible is packaged in the New International Version and published by Zondervan. It contains commentary from a cadre of men and women on social issues, relating them to Scripture and Scripture to them. Justin Sprinkle is the general editor and provides commentary on sexuality and gender. I believe...

I believe this episode, the first of a series, may be the most important I record... because it speaks to the well-being of the evangelical church, or what used to be known as evangelicalism. I am committed, using my life journey knowing what it is like to be driven by evil desires that crave sex with another man (not a sexual orientation), to proclaim God's moral laws and creation ordinances...

The verse that I couldn't find is Psalm 34:22. I was trying to locate it in the New American Standard Bible (NASB) I keep next to my computer. This morning, I checked it out in the NASB I keep next to my chair in the living room - and there it was. The NASB I keep next to my computer is the 1995 version; the one in my living room is the 2020 version, and I find it a more powerful translation...

Less than an hour ago, I listened to Back to Chicago My Babylon. It was one of the first episodes that I recorded for this podcast. It had been over a year since I had listened to it, and I realized that I had omitted what I had found when I returned: AIDS had claimed many of my friends, and someone I had considered more than a friend. I omitted it because I felt too guilty to face the fact that I...

I've asked myself that question. And it's a question that every Christian needs to ask themselves. In this episode, I take you on my journey of coming to the truth that I loved my sin more than I loved God, what I did about it, and where I am today loving God. I pray it will both challenge and encourage you.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

In 2013, Alan Chambers disgraced Jesus on National TV. I am recording this episode on May 25, 2026. Last week, Chambers disgraced Jesus again. I leave it up to you to listen to this episode for the details.  And I warn: Don't let his sin justify the sin in your life.  Email: dennymrb@outlook.com

In this episode, I trace the invention of the words homosexual and heterosexual, and the idea of sexual orientation, back to the middle and late 1800s and early 1900s. I also share when the word homosexual first appeared in a translation of the New Testament (1946), and that it opened the door for the present ideas of straight people and gay people as categories of humanity, and straight and gay C...
