Daniel Mingo has spent decades following Jesus while navigating unwanted same-sex attraction, sexual addiction, marriage, recovery, and ministry.
In this conversation, Daniel joins Brady Cone to share his story and discuss what it actually looks like to pursue Christ when same-sex attraction doesn’t simply disappear. They talk about prayer, repentance, accountability, identity in Christ, sanctification, and why Daniel rejects the label “gay Christian.”
They also discuss Side B Christianity, Revoice, the difference between temptation and identity, and why genuine discipleship requires more than simply changing behavior.
This is a conversation about what it means to deny yourself, take up your cross, follow Jesus, and trust God with the process of sanctification—even when that process takes a lifetime.
