Ever since Pope Francis uttered those famous words, "Who am I to judge?", concerning homosexuality, the Catholic Church has been hotly debating the issue of how to respond to the LGBT community. This podcast is a conversation with two men, both with same sex attraction, who have taken opposite points of view. One has embraced being gay as a member of a gay friendly Parrish in NYC, the other believes that this is not God's plan for his life. Please listen to this heartfelt discussion as the two men sitting side by side open their souls to each other and to me.

In light of the recent controversy within the Methodist community; i thought it might be fitting to share my conversation with Daniel Mattson, author of the book: “Why I Don’t Call Myself Gay: How I Reclaimed My Sexual Reality and Found Peace”. Daniel's story is eye opening, controversial, and incredibly honest. it was an honor to speak with him.

What happens when embracing a gay identity only brings emptiness? Author and speaker, Daniel Mattson shares his story and his book, Why I Don't Call Myself Gay: How I Reclaimed My Sexual Reality and Found Peace. Today's broadcast is brought to you in part by Solidarity Healthshare www.solidarityhealthshare.org/

Dan has written about the Church’s good news concerning homosexuality in First Things, Crisis Magazine, Catholic Answers Magazine as well as other publications.

When I (Laurie) was at a recent teaching event focused on leaning into LGBT+ conversation with grace and truth, I heard Daniel Mattson, author, speaker, and trombone player, share a story that made my jaw drop. As he taught, I found myself (for the first time) jealous of the way someone suffered. He offers that story here. We also play a ridiculous game where we all practice our acting skills (as West Michigan moms, hungry dinosaurs, and texting Millennials with focal fry), and Daniel and I lean into what labels we choose to identify (same-sex attracted? gay?) and why. Welcome back, friends! We are so excited to walk this season with you. Highlights: "God allows us to walk away from him and stumble and fall so we can learn to reach out our hands and have him pick us up again." --Daniel Mattson "I was tempted to despair when I was younger. I thought, 'If I obey God, I'm going to be stuck in a nursing home alone and forgotten.' . . . [But] let's say I'm in a retirement home when I'm 80. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to be looking around at those other people who may have just lost their spouse and don't know what it means to have the single life and thrive. I am going to take them by the hand and say, 'You know? I've been doing this for a long time. Let's live out this life with joy.'" --Daniel Mattson For More Visit: https://lauriekrieg.com/podcast/jealous-of-your-suffering/

Hudson lived through a long, dark season of shame and sexual confusion. Early exposure to pornography and often feeling inferior to his older brother, led Byblow along a path toward homosexuality, gender confusion, an ingrained porn habit, and self-loathing.   Years of drifting brought him to a moment of truth, a fundamental choice: to choose love and its demands, or give in to the lawlessness of lust? In response, God poured out His grace and Byblow was restored to the peace and lasting joy that chastity brings. In this courageously transparent interview, he recalls the sorrow and shame that kept him in invisible chains, but pointing also to the insistent way Christ began to move in his heart and mind. Today, Hudson Byblow is a sought-after speaker and consultant. His approach to same-sex attraction is fully in line with the teachings of the Church but it emphasizes the dimension of personal testimony and the importance of the lost art of listening.   In this episode, you will learn Why the language we use when speaking with hurting or angry people with sexual wounds can make the difference between breakthrough and breakdown How loneliness and self-rejection can fuel porn addiction The psychological roots of cross-dressing and gender confusion How a robust Catholic life provides the security and support for those with backgrounds like this The power of telling your story, of being willing to summarize how God has worked in your life   Recommended reading: Theology of the Body in One Hour by Jason Evert If You Really Loved Me: 100 Questions on Dating, Relationships, and Sexual Purity,  by Jason Evert Courage International including En-Courage for loved ones of folks with same-sex attractions and the free documentary, Desire of the Everlasting Hills Why I Don't Call Myself Gay: How I Reclaimed My Sexual Reality and Found Peace,  by Daniel Mattson   Patrick Coffin Show is 100% listener supported.

In the first segment, we play the "Old Testament or Scary Movie" game as we prepare for Halloween. In segment two, we welcome Catholic author Daniel Mattson to talk about his book "Why I Don't Call Myself Gay" and his journey through same sex attraction and faith. In the final segment, we return to the topic of the Old Testament and share some crazy stories from it that prove it's not "an old boring book" and that it truly has a purpose for us still today.

This may occur in two ways: First, through being contrary to right reason, and this is common to all lustful vices; secondly, because, in addition, it is contrary to the natural order of the venereal act as becoming to the human race: and this is called "the unnatural vice." This may happen in several ways. First, by procuring pollution, without any copulation, for the sake of venereal pleasure: this pertains to the sin of "uncleanness" which some call "effeminacy." Secondly, by copulation with a thing of undue species, and this is called "bestiality." Thirdly, by copulation with an undue sex, male with male, or female with female, as the Apostle states (Romans 1:27): and this is called the "vice of sodomy." Fourthly, by not observing the natural manner of copulation, either as to undue means, or as to other monstrous and bestial manners of copulation. ST II-II, Q. 154, A. 11.
