    Ex-Gay Visibility: Leaving Pride Behind | Andrew Rodriguez, Wayne Blakely, Elizabeth Woning ep .238

    Ex-Gay Visibility: Leaving Pride Behind | Andrew Rodriguez, Wayne Blakely, Elizabeth Woning ep .238

    The term ex-gay might seem as mythical a creature as the unicorn, but in all actuality, there are more people today that are living as ex-gays than there are as gays. Fr. Sullins has explored this with two colleagues in a recently published paper https://www.mdpi.com/2411-5118/4/4/39). Today, Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse is joined by a panel to discuss ex-gay visibility day, why people leave the gay identity, why those who have left will feel pressure not to leave, and how to deal with a child who expresses a same-sex desire. Joining the panel are: Elizabeth Woning, founder of the Changed Movement, Wayne Blakely, founder of Know His Love Ministries, and Andrew Rodriguez, a licensed clinical therapist.

She attended Presbyterian Church (USA) seminar as an open lesbian, and lobbied for marriage an ordination of LGBTQ individuals. The Love of God drew her into a revelation that transformed her life, and she began her journey away from her lesbian identity.
     
    Wayne Blakely is the founder of Know HIs Love Ministries (https://knowhislove.org/). After nearly forty years of living openly as a gay man, Jesus Christ convicted him that he had been living for self instead of for God. Today, Wayne writes and speaks around the world and on television sharing what God has done in his life, and what God promises to do for all who choose to establish their identity in the Lord, regardless of orientation.  "We ALL want to be loved and accepted.  As Jesus demonstrates His love for us, He invites us to let go of what is not good for us," Wayne explains. "We can’t always choose our temptations, but we can choose our behaviors."
     
    Andrew Rodriguez is an LPC in PA, the owner and director of Integrity Christian Counseling, and the creator of the YouTube channel, https://www.youtube.com/@psychobible, which he uses to discuss psychology, theology, and sexuality through a Christian counseling lens. He is certified in Reintegrative Therapy, an approach for trauma and addictions found safe and helpful in exploring sexual attraction fluidity. Andrew’s mission is to educate the public on the truth about sexuality and therapy for unwanted same-sex attraction, advocate for client rights, and equip the church to effectively help sexuality strugglers. He is on the board of Voice of the Voiceless (https://www.voiceofthevoiceless.info/), which amplifies the voices of ex-LGBT. As a nondenominational Christian, Andrew also seeks to spread John Paul II’s Theology of the Body among Protestant believers. Andrew has been married to his precious wife Jessica since 2007.

    Ruth Institute Podcast Episode 237 | Doing a 180: Detransitioning Back to Womanhood

    Ruth Institute Podcast Episode 237 | Doing a 180: Detransitioning Back to Womanhood

    The desire to be a mother came to Daisy Strong after she had undergone a double mastectomy and started taking wrong sex hormones. The desire must have been shocking, because she had told herself that she would never get pregnant; she was going to be a man. And as everyone knows, men can’t get pregnant. But if the desire to have children ever did come, she figured she could just use surrogacy. The desire to mother, moved her to reconsider her persona as a man, and move towards transitioning. While she and her husband were looking at surrogacy she realized that she had a body that could get pregnant, if what she had done didn’t prevent her from becoming pregnant.
     
    Daisy Strongin is a 24-year-old woman who detransitioned after identifying as a man for five years. She is a stay-at-home mother and lives with her husband and 2-month-old son in the suburbs of Chicago. Her goal in her activism is to support detransitioners’ voices and to persuade medical and mental health professionals to engage in more ethical and critical conversations surrounding care for gender dysphoria.

    A Catholic Gender Studies Program? Dr. J Show ep. 236 | Leah Jacobson and Kevin Stuart

    In an age where many women have decided that having children is not worth it, there are women all around the country who have decided to have more children. Catherine Pakaluk, an economist and director of Social Research at the Catholic University, recently asked the question why do these women decide to have more children? She traveled across the country and spoke with 55 women, all of whom had 5 or more children, to find out why they decided to have more children. Her new book, "Hannah's Children: the Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth," contains her research and stories of the women she interviewed. And you can enter to win one of five autographed copies of the book, for free! Just send an email to Bookgiveaway@ruthinstitute.org before May 16th at 12 PM Central to be entered to win.

    Catherine Ruth Pakaluk (Ph.D, 2010) joined the faculty at the Busch School in the summer of 2016, and is the founder of the Social Research academic area, where she is an Associate Professor of Social Research and Economic Thought. Formerly, she was Assistant Professor and Chair of the Economics Department at Ave Maria University. Her primary areas of research include economics of education and religion, family studies and demography, Catholic social thought and political economy. Dr. Pakaluk is the 2015 recipient of the Acton Institute’s Novak Award, a prize given for “significant contributions to the study of the relationship between religion and economic liberty.”
     
    Pakaluk did her doctoral work at Harvard University under Caroline Hoxby, David Cutler, and 2016 Nobel-laureate Oliver Hart. Her dissertation, “Essays in Applied Microeconomics”, examined the relationship between religious ‘fit' and educational outcomes, the role of parental effort in observed peer effects and school quality, and theoretical aspects of the contraceptive revolution as regards twentieth century demographic trends.   
     
    Beyond her formal training in economics, Dr. Pakaluk studied Catholic social thought under the mentorship of F. Russell Hittinger, and various aspects of Thomistic thought with Steven A. Long. She is a widely-admired writer and sought-after speaker on matters of culture, gender, social science, the vocation of women, and the work of Edith Stein. She lives in Maryland with her husband Michael Pakaluk and eight children.

    Listen to the full episode here: https://theruthinstitute.locals.com/post/5605536/the-ruth-institute-podcast-episode-234-mary-margaret-olahan-shares-detransitioner-stories
     
    Being transgender is almost the preferred mode of existence: from President Biden proclaiming transgender day of visibility on Easter, to June being pride month, especially for transitioning. But in the wake of the WPATH files, and the Cass report from the UK the tide seems to be turning against the insanity that is transgenderism. A powerful component to helping it turn is hearing and understanding the stories of the people who transitioned and then regretted their decision and have since detransitioned. Mary Margaret Olohan, senior reporter at the Daily Signal, has just published a new book that discusses the stories of the detransitioners. Their stories are powerful, heartbreaking, and tragic.  Hear another detransitioner story here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6K7QgYOKThw
     
    Mary Margaret Olohan is a Senior Reporter at The Daily Signal where she covers the cultural and political stories of the moment through both video and print journalism. She previously wrote for The Daily Wire and got her start at The Daily Caller News Foundation, where she participated in the American Journalism Institute fellowship.Her work focuses on the protection of children’s innocence, the struggles of biological women to maintain the integrity of their sports and spaces, the battle over abortion and the protection of the unborn, and the coronavirus pandemic’s effect on children, service members, businesses, and the livelihoods of every-day Americans. She is a graduate of The Catholic University of America, and most proud to be the oldest daughter in an Irish Catholic family of eleven children.
