Loving Your LGBTQ-Identified Child without Compromise | Melinda Patrick Interview
I'm delighted to present this interview with Melinda Hardy Patrick, host of the The Bridge Between Us podcast and author of the new book, The Daring Rescue: Joining Jesus Christ in His Pursuit of Your LGBTQ-Identified Child's Heart. I've been a guest on Melinda's podcast a couple times and I was honored to read her book's manuscript and give my endorsement. In this interview, we dive into Melinda's story and the lessons she's learned from experiencing her daughter come out as lesbian, reacting out of fear and shame, and then rebuilding her relationship with her daughter all while not compromising on biblical truth and hope. Parents and loved ones of those with same-sex attraction or gender confusion, this interview is for you!
