    Fascinated by Femininity: What Finally Opened My Eyes

    Why is being made in the image of God the best starting point for dating? For a long time, being fascinated by femininity wasn’t even on my radar. My view of women was shaped more by personal brokenness than by God’s design. In this video, I share how that perspective was challenged and changed — and what finally opened my eyes to the beauty, depth, and purpose of femininity through a biblical lens. Whether you’re a man trying to better understand women, someone navigating same-sex attraction, or just wrestling with identity and relationships, I hope this encourages you to think deeper — and pursue wholeness in Christ first. 🔔 Like, comment, and subscribe if this resonates with you. 📖 Key Scriptures: Genesis 1:27 · Ephesians 5 · Romans 12:2  Prefer to watch?

    Grieving What Could Never Satisfy You?

    "As a Christian with same-s3x attraction, is it valid for me to mourn that I will never live the LGBTQ lifestyle?" Some Catholic and Protestant voices have recently framed "Pride Month" as a time for mourning—lamenting the idea of not being able to live out same-sex desires. In this video, Marco responds to that perspective, offering a thoughtful critique of this kind of grief and sharing practical, hope-filled ways to break free from it.

    How do you order your "temple"?

    Is Your Recovery Selfish? The Virtue You Might Be Ignoring

    Andrew and Marco dive into a vital component of true freedom: the cardinal virtue of justice. They connect this virtue to real-life situations, showing that justice is not merely a lofty ideal but a guiding principle for everyday living. Andrew emphasizes that chastity, at its core, is an expression of justice—a way of giving others what is rightfully due to them. He illustrates how justice can be practiced in concrete ways, especially in the pursuit of chastity and authentic self-gift within our sexual identity. Together, they relate this to both the marital and celibate vocations. Andrew also explores the potential pitfall of recovery becoming overly self-centered and "unjust." While personal healing is essential, he reminds us that as social beings, our actions always have an effect on those around us. True recovery must be rooted in justice toward others.
