In this powerful 2-hour conversation, I talk to Christian counselor, Andrew Rodriguez (@psychobible). We expose the critical gap between doctrine and practice at Christian institutions — using Biola University as a real-world case study. Includes a discussion about Rosemead Psychology’s stance on “conversion therapy.”
🔥 We read Biola’s old vs. new gender & student care policies line-by-line.
⚖️ Compare their public statements of faith with actual campus culture
❌ Unpack the red flags in “The Dwelling” — Biola’s official LGBTQ+/SSA ministry
🗣️ React to clips from a Preston Sprinkle’s chapel talk & Side B framework
🛑 Why “gay Christian,” “sexual orientation,” and “safe space” language undermines transformation
Parents, pastors, youth leaders — this is your roadmap for:
• Crafting biblically sound policies
• Training leaders to respond in the moment when a teen says, “I think I’m gay/trans”
• Avoiding the Side B drift that leaves students stuck, not sanctified

Faith That Sticks: My Youth Pastor’s Unorthodox Playbook
I sit down with Ron Baum, my former youth pastor to discuss his unconventional approach to discipling teens. He helped us go beyond surface-level conversations, challenging us to dive deeper into our faith, fostering lasting spiritual growth and a posture of servant-leadership. This episode explores his unique methods and offers inspiration for today’s youth pastors to encourage teens to engage meaningfully with their faith.
