Listen in as Pastor Josh and Joe Curtis welcome Laurie Krieg to the podcast. Laurie offers personal insights and inspiration as we dive deeper into the Marriage, Sexuality, and Gender discussion.

There are so many questions about gender and sexuality demanding answers in our culture today. Does the Bible affirm same-sex marriages or not? What do you do if you're just not attracted to the opposite gender? Who do you talk to about your same-sex attraction? What should you say when your sibling comes out? How should the church respond to the LGBTQ+ community? Laurie Krieg is an author, speaker, and host of Hole In My Heart podcast whose mission is to train the church with a Gospel-centered approach to gender and sexuality. She shares her story of experiencing same-sex attraction from a young age, yet feeling unsafe to talk about it in any church setting. After graduating from a Christian university, her life was interrupted when she encountered God's love.  In this episode, Laurie explains: - how God designed the mystery of marriage to be - how to be a safe person - why we should not compare our different brands of sexual brokenness - the advise she would give her 22 year-old self & anyone else who is struggling with same-sex attraction - that God loves LGBTQ+ people just the way they are Resources: Website - https://lauriekrieg.com/ An Impossible Marriage by Matt and Laurie Krieg - https://www.amazon.com/Impossible-Marriage-Mixed-Orientation-Taught-Gospel/dp/0830847936/ref=sr_1_1?crid=32EIQ3FAD5SYH&keywords=impossible+marriage+krieg&qid=1641316967&sprefix=impossible+marriage+krieg%2Caps%2C87&sr=8-1 The Center for Faith, Gender, and Sexuality with Preston Sprinkle - https://ondemand.centerforfaith.com/ Hole In My Heart Podcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/7lanhpj9eRbEoVpt13G7dI

In the second session of the REAL TALK conference 2023, Laurie Krieg offers some practical tools to use and questions to ask as we pursue freedom in the area of sexual brokenness. Both driven by compassion and deep conviction, Laurie encourages us to get honest with God in our pursuit of freedom.

In the last session of REAL TALK 2023, Laurie Krieg and Pastor Jake Blauwkamp answer questions from our young adult's community. Listen in for powerful responses on the topics of LGBTQ+, codependent relationships, healing from trauma, and struggling with sin.

The LGBTQIA+ conversation has intersected with foster care heavily in recent years and it has prompted many people in the foster care community to have questions such as: How can we care for our LGBTQ+ kids as foster parents who hold to a traditional view of marriage? How should the Church come alongside LGBTQ+ foster parents who do not hold to the traditional view of marriage? And many more. If you are unaware of what each of the letters stands for or haven't seen the “IA” part of LGBTQIA+ here's what each letter represents: L – lesbian, G – gay, B – bisexual, T – transgender, Q – queer, I – intersex, A – asexual. The “+” indicates many more that could be mentioned, but I'll pause there for now. I'm thrilled to have Laurie Krieg with me as we navigate this topic of sexuality and gender through the lens of the Gospel. Laurie identified a default to a same-sex attraction when she was starting at five years old. She wrestled with what this meant for her Christian faith throughout her young adult life. Laurie identifies as both a Christ-follower and a part of the LGBTQ+ community and has been on the front lines of the sexuality conversation since 2014. Today, Laurie is the president of Impossible Ministries, a coaching ministry with the mission to equip the Church with a gospel-centered approach to marriage and sexuality. Laurie is also a coach, speaker, author, podcaster, mom to three, and has a mixed-orientation marriage with her husband, Matt. This conversation is so important, and I want to encourage you to listen in! Show Notes: https://theforgotteninitiative.org/laurie-krieg-170/ Get 10% off BetterHelp: https://betterhelp.com/tfi

In our first session of the REAL TALK conference 2023, author and traveling speaker Laurie Krieg shares her story of redemption. In doing so, she exposes the purpose of life, marriage, and sex. Join us as she confronts lies facing our culture with the truth of God's heart.

 What can Christian do about her same-sex attraction? How is an LGBT Christian to respond to the Bible's blueprint for marriage, in Genesis? What impact does a Christian's disgust over sexual brokenness have on those around her, who are suffering? I'm sitting down with my friend, Laurie Krieg, to talk about the story of Genesis 1-3 and what it shows us about God's design for marriage—especially for the LGBT+ Christian. Laurie shares how she found the determination to work through her mixed-orientation marriage suffering, by digging into the juicy steak of theology, served up in the Genesis narrative and what it points to.     Laurie is a coach/consultant, speaker, author, and podcast host whose mission is to equip Jesus-followers with a gospel-centered approach to sexuality.More: Full Length ShownotesGuest: Laurie KriegBible Passage: Genesis 1-3,Get your Freebie: The Live Like It's True WorkbookMentioned Resources: Laurie's Book:  An Impossible Marriage: What Our Mixed-Orientation Marriage Has Taught Us About Love and the GospelFocus on the Family episode, highlighting Laurie's family: The Joys of Raising a Large Family - Part 2 with Guests Randy & Marcia HekmanAda Bible - Laurie Intervied by Aaron Buer: The Questionable Life | Aaron Buer 9amDown Gillian Lane, where Laurie played "Brooke" Keys for Kids Ministries > Programming > Down Gilead Lane > Read & ListenLive LIke It's True Episode with Mary Kassian, talking about marriage metaphor, and the imagery of Christ's side split open and the church being born:E33 Adam and Eve: Man and Wife {Mary Kassian - Genesis 2}Live Like It's True Episode with Portia Collins - the first mention of the gospel: E36 The Seed of the Woman {Portia Collins - Genesis 3}Laurie's StoryFor as long as Laurie can remember, she has loved Jesus, and she has been same sex attracted.

Talking about the fun stuff today. Super excited to have Laurie Krieg join us today to talk about her story. The Church has a hard time talking about LGBTQ issues, which is super disappointing. Laurie has a very unique perspective that helps start conversations. Excited for you all to hear our conversation!

In this episode, Sabrina and I bring to a conclusion our unintended series on relationship myths with Episode 038: Busting more myths about singleness, marriage, and sex! Other episodes mentioned: Episode 036 - Celebrating Singleness Episode 037 - Busting some marriage myths (and a few single ones too) Episode 021 - Let's talk about sex, baby! Episode 022 - Let's keep talking about sex, baby! Myths: God won't give you a spouse until you trust Him completely! Sex is NOT important in a marriage. Sex is the reason TO get married. Sex confirms we SHOULD get married. Quotes shared: Sex is about physical touch, to be sure, but it is about far more than physical touch. It is about what is going on inside us...sex becomes a form of physical prayer --- a picture of heavenly intimacy that rivals the shekinah glory of old. Our God, who is spirit, can be found behind the very physical panting, sweating, and pleasurable entangling of limbs and body parts. He doesn't turn away. He wants us to run into sex, but to do so with his presence, priorities, and virtues making our pursuit. If we experience sex this way, we will be transformed in the marriage bed every bit as much as we are transformed on our knees in prayer. --- Matt Krieg (Impossible Marriage) Sex in marriage is a metaphor inside the metaphor itself. Marriage between a husband and wife is a metaphor of God's desire to be one with humanity. It points to the ‘marriage' between Christ and the Church. The covenant of sex in marriage is modeling what Christ bodily did for us on the cross. Jesus saying, 'I am holistically giving and covenanting myself to you on the cross.' So, we say that through our sex. But we also say to our spouses through sex, 'This is how God wants to be one with you. He is the completer of you. He is the one who pursues you and desires you.' We've over emphasized sex, but completely diminished it by not holding it up as this theological dance.” — Laurie Krieg

How can the Church support LGBTQ teens? What if they are non-affirming....is that even possible to support them? If so, how? In this episode Laurie Krieg shares with us how to pursue meaningful relationships with sexual minorities in our places of faith and answers some of your toughest questions on the subject. 

We are continuing our LGBTQ+ series as we interview Laurie Krieg, a same-sex attracted woman who is married to a man. In this episode, she goes deep into the true biblical meaning of marriage AND singleness. She also shares her journey of being a woman attracted to other women, and how it's impacted her marriage.

We all have a hole in our heart. Laurie shares how she tried to fill the normal desires of being seen, heard, and loved in the wrong places and soon found herself as a Christian in a same-sex relationship putting her at a crossroads of coming out as a lesbian atheist or committing suicide. She describes her non-church acceptable idols and how she discovered God's love and His power to transform her life. Yet the battle wasn't over as she found herself marrying Matt, who also struggled with sexual brokenness and, after six years of marriage, told her that he had been lying about his unwanted sexual behaviors. Listen now for an incredible story of redemption and restoration and how God is using their story to make an amazing impact!More Resources:https://lauriekrieg.com/https://lauriekrieg.com/podcast/Our Resources:https://restored2more.com/https://www.instagram.com/restored2more/https://www.facebook.com/Restored-2-More-108863067511392/?modal=admin_todo_tour

Every marriage has challenges related to sexual brokenness. In this episode, Matt and Laurie Krieg share their story of what can be called a "mixed-orientation" marriage, which means one spouse struggles with same-sex attractions. But far beyond the "label" Matt and Laurie want to share the beauty and purpose of God's design for marriage and sex that brings hope to other couples no matter the types of sexual brokenness that have affected their relationship.

In this episode, we pick up where we left off last time talking about living our lives on mission. If your marriage is not focused on the right mission, then your mission will become only about your marriage. If you haven't yet, make sure and listen to Episode 018 of the podcast. We start talking about values here. Values are not just the words we say, they are the way we live born out of what we believe, because of who God is. We also answer a listener question about "What is the biggest thing your kids have taught you?" Success as a parent is not found in obedience or outcomes, but in offering them my best. If I take the blame for my kids' mistakes then I'll also take the credit for their success, and when I do that, I'm taking the place of God in their life.If their mistakes are my fault and their successes are from my strength, then neither they nor I need God. All my kids need is me, and all I need is for them to do well. Ephesians 5:31-33 31 As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.” 32 This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one. 33 So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. If you have stated values but don't live them out, they aren't values, they are aspirations. Value #1: Together - We will live out our lives TOGETHER! Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. If you're married, the best thing you could ever do for your kids is model to them that they are not the center of your universe. Jesus is, and then mom and dad, then your children. Even when it comes to decisions we have to make. While we might disagree behind closed doors, once a decision is made, we are going to stand together in it. Value #2: Intimacy - We will live in INTIMACY Intimacy is a core value for us. It's something that takes effort, and work, and the enemy is fighting against it with all his might. And not just sexual intimacy. That's a part of it, but all aspects of intimacy are a value. There are different kinds of intimacy. We hear “intimacy” and in our over-sexualized culture, we immediately jump to sex. I fully believe that sexual intimacy is the fruit of being healthy in the other areas of intimacy. If there is not regular and consistent sexual intimacy in a marriage, it's a sign of something else wrong in the marriage or in the individuals. "Sex is not a need --- even in marriage. Sex is fruit. It is a gift for covenanted couples. It is a Gospel metaphor within the Gospel metaphor of marriage. It is something to be used to worship God, not to be demanded." --- Laurie Krieg in An Impossible Marriage Before you're married, the devil does everything he can to get you to have sex. After you're married, he does everything he can to stop you from having sex. While our marriages should model to the world how Christ and the church are one, sex models to our partner, in the ultimate and most revealing way, how Christ is one with us.

If you’ve been raised in church you’ve probably heard this is how it’s “supposed” to be. Boy meets girl, they fall in love, have sex for the first time on their wedding night, and "fireworks". They immediately enter a fulfilling sexual relationship that lasts for the rest of their lives. But there’s a good chance that’s not your story.

My guests for The Happy Hour #363 are Matt and Laurie Krieg. Matt and Laurie are the authors of the book An Impossible Marriage, and hosts of the Hole in my Heart podcast.  I’ve had their book for a while and finally dove into it last month. Guys, this is one of the best books I’ve ever read on marriage - I devoured every single word. In this episode, they share their story of Laurie’s same-sex attraction, and yet their commitment to fighting for their marriage. Matt and Laurie are so vulnerable about their challenges, and the importance of taking moments to remember that God truly sees us. I loved when they talked about allowing God to work through us to meet the needs of others, and the wonderful gift that marriage is to show people the Gospel. They say “When we die to self, we show the world how Jesus died to be one with us as we be one with our spouse.” For the full summary and links to the show, click the link below!

This will be an encouragement to all married couples and all singles.   Laurie Krieg is a writer, speaker, and ministry leader whose mission is to teach the Church how to approach sexuality with the gospel.

Today we continue our Dating, Courtship, Marriage & Beyond Series with Laurie Krieg, author and wife within a mixed-orientation marriage. Laurie shares her story of wrestling with God and marriage as she denies her natural attraction toward the same-sex.

Attractions to the same sex. Unprocessed childhood trauma. Porn addiction. Matt and Laurie’s marriage seemed doomed. If marriage is primarily about attraction, it was. If marriage is a gospel picture, it absolutely wasn’t. Matt and Laurie Krieg join me on this episode of the Ordinary Faith Podcast to talk about struggle, faith, and the gospel that has freed them both to love.

There is perhaps no bigger social issue within Christianity—or within secular culture—than the evolving ideas around same-sex attraction. Within the church, many remain rooted to their traditional convictions that Scripture does not condone same-sex marriage [...] The post An Impossible Marriage: A Conversation with Laurie Krieg appeared first on Life Is Story.

An honest conversation about a polarizing topic. LGBTQ+ is not an issue to be solved, they are friends and neighbors and family to be loved. We will honor God and love each other when we hold grace and truth firmly together as Jesus modeled for us. Join Pastor Toran and Author Laurie Krieg as they dive deeply into this important conversation.

This is an exciting one for me (Josh) because we are having a fellow Side B podcaster here on with us today...Laurie Krieg. Grant and I are talking with Laurie about doubt and how to deal with it. Is there anything good God can do through our doubt? We also talk to Laurie about her new book coming out in October 2020 called Impossible Marriage and the experience of doubt she explains about in the book. You can pre-order Impossible Marriage now at www.impossiblemarriage.com and join their launch team to get extra bonus materials. 

Christy begins Season Three with a peek into her early marriage. She explores the way fundamentalism initially influenced her view of marriage and how being married to her wonderfully opposite husband for the past thirteen years has changed that perspective. Christy rejects some common Christianese claims about marriage. And she suggests that while there is no perfect formual. marriage is actually a divine partnership that provides the possibility for a glimpse into the God that created it.

I Parents...this is your week! I This week, Matt and Laurie take your questions on the advice they give to parents of LGBTQ+ kids--and, really, it's just good advice for everyone, always coming back to the gospel and the purpose of our lives in God's eyes. Topics include: What is the advice we offer to all parents of LGBT+ kids? Would we bake the cake/do the photography/do therapy for a same-sex couple? How do we know if we are called to marriage or singleness? I Highlights: I “The most—for me—winsome reason for God’s design for marriage being between men and women is because we’re so different. God did that on purpose. Because if Matt and I, in our difference can be one...I’m showing you a gospel picture...” -Laurie Krieg "I don’t know how to answer the singleness piece, but the marrying piece, it had to be [Laurie]. God didn’t want me to just marry anyone. He didn’t call me to general marriage—He called me to [Laurie].” - Matt Krieg "It’s important to not make [marriage]...an idol, to not make that thing the focus of my worship, but to take it as a gift from the One I worship.” -Steve O’Dell  I Do the Next Thing: I Watch this Conversation!

We are so excited to have Laurie Krieg join us as we discuss sexuality/gender and the gospel. As we share about love, sex, and relationships, this topic is huge, and we are so thankful for Laurie's wisdom and insight as she points us to the truth that we are all broken, and yet we are all so loved by our Savior. We know you'll love Laurie just as much as we do, and we hope you'll leave feeling challenged, encouraged, and more equipped to have the hard conversations.

Today is question and answer time with Matt and Laurie! We cover a lot including these questions: How did we first meet Steve? How do we handle Pride Month? How do we plan to address our mixed-orientation marriage with our kids? How can straight, single guys and girls be friends without the relationship getting weird? If we, as a married couple, invite a single person into our home how can we prevent it from becoming a situation where one of us falls in love with the single person? How can I care for my bisexual friend without compromising my beliefs or pushing my beliefs on her? How can I be committed to a worldview that has caused so much pain and depression for so many LGBTQ+ people? How do we grieve well—whether for trivial things or deep, human loss? Let's go, fam. | Highlights: | “It always has to be this recognition of what is good about Pride Month—about people being able to be open and not hidden. But there is also this sorrow: … the unity that comes from Pride Month is not oriented toward your relationship with God, it’s about something completely different.” —Matt “Ya’ll, we got to repent for the last x decades of idolatry of marriage, idolatry of sex in marriage, and really? Not honoring this thing that we have eye-rollingly said is ‘Every man’s battle, every woman’s battle,’ and ‘Oh, just hurry up and get hitched and put a ring on your lust.’” —Laurie “Yes, it costs LGBT+ people something to follow Jesus, but the gospel should cost all of us our lives. And if it is not, are we actually following Jesus?” —Laurie | Do the Next Thing: | Watch this conversation on Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/428642123 That BOGO deal for our Journey Well Study?

LOVE really does win when we learn to embrace, serve and disciple God's people, no matter who they are or where they've come from.

Guys. We wrote a study! And it's been published! I--Laurie--began writing this while I was walking out my discipleship journey with my mentor, Carolyn. I take the lessons she taught me, sprinkle additional ones God has brought me through over the years, and invite you to join me on the journey. We explore things like how to listen to God, lament, what to do with temptation, how to process shame, Core Needs, and lots more. This is literally the book I wish I had been able to walk through when I was wrestling the most with my sexuality. It is zero percent conversion therapy. It is all the gospel's good news for my version of broken sexuality, too. This study is meant to be done in mentorship pairs, groups, or on your own. If you have been wishing/hoping/praying for a tangible something disciple-y to do with someone or as someone who experiences broken sexuality similarly to the way I do, this is our gift to you. Practically, here is the gift I can offer you! FOR PODCAST LISTENERS starting now to the end of January 2020, order the book and videos on our site--using the code PODCAST, and get it all for $19.99. The episode today explores more of the how, why, and what of the book (with Matt interviewing me!). Thanks for caring about this decade-long work of my heart. Love you, guys. Highlights: “I said to God, ‘If I make it through this hell season . . . I’d love an opportunity to talk to even one other person who is even a half-step behind me.’ And I started writing.” --Laurie Krieg “This is not gay-to-straight sort of reparative therapy junk. This is: Can you walk into this third, middle, suffering-well path—with whatever version of broken sexuality you have--and can you encounter God there?" --Laurie Krieg "We Can. Not. Do. This. Without you. Ruthlessly eliminate sin in your life. Ruthlessly eliminate shame. Shred that. Start a group with your friends--whether it’s a Journey Well group or whatever ... Get in. Come shoulder-to-shoulder with us." --Laurie Krieg Question of the Week for Next Week: What are you nerdy about?

Many people abuse hearing from God. But just because they misuse the process, does it mean we shouldn't engage? Jim Samra, someone who literally wrote the book about it, helps us to think about how we can wisely approach listening to God. (And that book title is pretty funny: 'God Told Me: Who to Marry, Where to Work, Which Car to Buy ... And I'm Pretty Sure I'm Not Crazy.') Jim also guides us through questions such as, "How mature do you have to be to hear from God?" "What if you are living in sin--does God still speak to you?" "How does the Bible interact with this process?" "Can and should we pray for a spouse?" We loved this one. Highlights: "There are lot of people who abuse this idea: They are going to use the 'God told me' or 'God speaking to me' language just to masquerade for the things they actually want to do." --Jim Samra "If I just had one or two points to get across, it'd be one: God loves you, and two: the burden of communication is on Him." --Jim Samra "Take the example of voice recognition software ... you are training it to recognize your voice. The Bible is the Word of God--meaning this is what God's voice sounds like. The more time you spend with the Bible, the more you are trained, 'This is what God says.'" --Jim Samra "If you're going to wait until you're holy enough to hear from God--that's just not how it works ... While you are *still wrestling with sanctification* God still speaks to you.... Just give Him a chance." --Jim Samra ​ Do the Next Thing: Find Jim and Lisa Samra's website here: www.olivesandcoffee.com Jim's book on listening to God?

There is intense pain in the world and in our hearts--based on national or personal tragedy. We may be quick to jump to anger, to text someone, to Twitter, to do something. These actions may not be wrong, but they can be wrong-hearted if we skip an important step: going to the Father with lament that leads to forgiveness and eventual love for our enemies. It feels impossible--really, truly loving our enemies--but as believers we are called to do the impossible with the One who empowers us. But how in the world can we do this lament that leads to forgiveness that leads to genuine love for our enemies? We get as practical as we can in this episode, breaking down how we lament in real life, and even give you a bonus episode where Matt leads us like a midwife to birth these laments today. :) Highlights: "I picture the cross of Christ, but I don't put the person ... on the cross ... He deserves it. So do I." --Laurie Krieg "If there is anything that you could get out of this, yes, lament and understand what it is. But, understand that the God we go to is a God who wants all of us. Not just the joy, not just the sad, not just the stoic, not just the put-together, and not just the broken. All of it." --Matt Krieg Do the Next Thing: Find the full episode notes and a lot here on the podcast episode page here: https://lauriekrieg.com/podcast/before-we-jump-to-activism-with-the-crew/

Laurie is a wife and mom who grew up in a strong Christian home.  She comes from a large and impressive family and went on to do impressive things for God because she was trying really hard to sort out how to be "Christian enough" to stop being attracted to other women.  This conversation is something the church needs to hear.  I know I needed to hear it.  She tells her story with gut wrenching honesty but also so much grace.  I think you'll be surprised to discover how similar your story is to hers!
