Free Will & LGBTQ Issues w/ Dr. Tim Stratton
Show Notes

Join me, Brady Cone, and my esteemed guest Dr. Tim Stratton, founder of Free Thinking Ministries, as we explore the intricacies of faith and sexuality within the Christian context. Our dialogue reminisces about our youth ministry days and how a surge of atheism spurred Tim's intensive journey into apologetics. Listen in as we unpack the concept of reasonable faith and its crucial role in understanding Christian beliefs, particularly in relation to LGBTQ issues. Tim's insights into free will and Molinism pave the way for a robust discussion on God's love and its relevance to our ministry's approach to sexuality.  


Venture with us through a theological examination of freedom, predestination, and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit. Discover how Molinism offers a fresh perspective on the balance between God's sovereignty and human choice, especially in the context of LGBTQ struggles. You'll hear a personal testament to the life-changing potential of faith, and we'll reveal how scientific principles echo the biblical encouragement for renewing one's mind. This episode encourages listeners to engage in their sanctification process, drawing upon divine strength while exercising their free will.
