Living the Lifestyle

For a long time now conservative Christians have demonised and warned of the danger of the “gay lifestyle”. But what is this gay lifestyle that straight conservatives seem to know so much about? Does it even exist? And if there are issues with the lifestyle that some choose to lead, what pushed them into that lifestyle in the first place? Does the church have a role to play in all of this?

Dan and Jo explore what this perceived gay lifestyle looks like before discussing how the church may actually influence people's lifestyle choices. Listen in on the conversation as they reflect on what the church community may have done to push people into a life they are so concerned with.

Enough Room

We are a gay Christian Adventist couple who believe that there is enough room for all in the family of God, no matter what our differences may be. We share stories and voices you may not always hear within our churches. We pray this creates positive conversations of hope and that you may find a place here to be known, to be loved and to be.

About your hosts

Daniel Laredo

As a fourth generation Adventist, Daniel has never known life outside the church. He has a Bachelor's degree in music, biblical languages and media production. With much prayer and study, Daniel came to an affirming theological perspective after years of involvement with change ministries. He hopes to encourage others who are on their own journey of discovering their identity in Christ.

Jokatama Prasad

Born and raised in the church, Jo never expected to find himself being pushed out by it. While Jo’s journey of self acceptance and a search for belonging has been challenging, it led him to find a loving God who was far greater than the sum of his painful experiences and hurt and a return to the church of his childhood. He hopes that all will be able to experience, as he has, a love that not only transforms them but also changes the way they see others.
