In today's episode, Becket Cook interviews Jeff Johnson, a worship leader from Atlanta, who shares his powerful testimony of how God delivered him from a hidden life of same-sex attraction. From childhood trauma and secret encounters in high school and college, to surrendering at Passion conference while battling ongoing desires, Jeff reveals the shame, double life, and eventual confession to his future wife Jordan. Her grace-filled response led to counseling, radical surrender, and an inspiring journey to marriage.

Now married 15 years with three kids, Jeff and Jordan discuss building transparency, community accountability, and choosing holiness over desires. With a surprising twist from Becket and strong encouragement for those struggling, this conversation proves that with God all things are possible and true identity is found in Christ alone. Watch to the end!
