Disentangling My Self from Same-Sex Desires by Stephen Moss

Disentangling My Self from Same-Sex Desires by Stephen Moss

“In the months following that first confession of my same-sex desires, with help from Jesus, I began the slow and messy process of disentangling those desires from the man he created me to be. When I made my desires and my self a package deal, I couldn’t fight one without feeling like I was fighting the other. Repenting of my same-sex desires felt like I was repenting of being emotional, or creative, or tall. But as I’m learning how to distinguish my sin from my self, the freedom that I’m finding has been truly transformational.” - Stephen Moss

Today’s episode from Stephen Moss shares his story of disentangling his self-conception from his battles with same-sex desires. He chronicles his journey from an identity based on stereotypes and tribalism to one of freedom in Christ as he learned who he truly is—a unique image bearer of God and a new-creation man, united to Christ.
