In this powerful episode, Kim Zember shares her deeply personal journey through same-sex relationships, heartbreak, and the search for identity—and how it all collided with the radical love of Jesus. Kim isn’t here to debate or condemn. She’s here to tell the truth about what it’s like to chase love that doesn’t satisfy… and to be found by the One who does. Her story is raw, redemptive, and full of the kind of hope our world is starving for. Timestamps: 4:35 - “My identity is not in what I do—it’s in what He’s done.” 6:11 - “I just wanted to be loved.” Where the ache began. 11:59 - Can something feel right… and still be wrong? 40:46 - “God’s not trying to fix me. He’s making me whole.” 46:37 - Why affirmation isn’t the same as love 43:42 - What to say when your child says, “I’m gay” 47:52 - Fasting for your children: the forgotten weapon If you’ve ever wrestled with identity, love, or how to walk with someone who is—this episode will challenge and encourage you. There’s a love stronger than any label. A truth deeper than any feeling.And a God who calls you His.
