Episode 44- My Conversation With Ken Wortley About The The Gospel of Secrets:

I decided to only post this podcast episode on only one podcast, but I decided to post on this podcast due to because I wanted this podcast to hear it. In this episode, I had a conversation with KenWortley about his book the Gospel of Secrets. Ken is the bestselling author of The Gospel of Secrets: A Memoir of Truth, Liberation, and Love, and a former pastor with two decades spent guiding communities in the U.S. Through his memoir and advocacy, Ken has inspired countless people to embrace self-worth and inner peace as both LGBTQ+ and people of faith. His own transformation—from hiding his true identity to living openly with authenticity and spiritual integrity—is a story of real liberation, breaking cycles of shame, and learning to trust yourself even when tradition says otherwise. we talked about the importance of once you heal and recover and you accept yourself as far as the true and real version of yourself you're never gonna go back to the illusion version of yourself. we talked about how so many people are living a lie, and covering up the real version of themselves. And how that is never a good thing to do. This conversation was an absolute phenomenal conversation. I'm glad that I did the conversation with him because there are millions of people that are hiding the true version of themselves because their parents will never accept the fact that they are gay. And the freedom when people finally admits to not own themselves, but to other people the real version of themselves. We also talk about how people in the gay community are treated when it comes to the church. And how he went from a pastor, to a husband, father, to his discovery of realizing that he was a gay man. This conversation is something that I hope helps millions of people that are struggling with the real version of who they are when it comes to being a gay or lesbian individual. And it's time for us to really have these true conversations about this topic. Especially when it comes to spirituality, and how people use it as a weapon against these types of people. And I think the one thing about being the real version of yourself that is the very beginning of your recovery and healing is once you learn to accept and appreciate the real version of yourself regardless of who doesn't.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-old-you-vs-the-new-you-podcast--5273633/support.
