Former Lesbian Activist Calls “Soft” Christians to Repentance | Guest: Rosaria Butterfield | Ep 796

Today we’re joined by Rosaria Butterfield to hear her amazing testimony of how she found Christ after years of living in sin. She shares her story of coming to Christ, from being raised by secular Catholics, to coming out as a lesbian and becoming an esteemed feminist academic, to finally being saved and dedicating her life to God. We also talk about a recent article Rosaria wrote in which she publicly repented for engaging in “pronoun hospitality,” the idea that affirming someone’s chosen identity is a good way to gain someone’s trust before sharing the Gospel with him. Rosaria explains why this isn’t correct and offers a fresh perspective on why it’s actually sinful for Christians to be supportive of “tolerant” or “inclusive” policies around marriage. We end with Rosaria’s thoughts on how to stay connected with friends and family who do things like use preferred pronouns, without affirming something that isn’t true; her advice to Christians who are struggling with believing they are gay or transgender; and how to navigate these situations in a biblical way.
