Living Waters has been the most beneficial course I have ever experienced regarding sexual sin issues and their root causes. I have been more able to walk with less shame and more transparency. I now see my need is not so much to flee sexual sin as it is to turn…
Linda’s Story: Tranformation of a Transgender
From my earliest memory I wanted to be a boy instead of a girl. Somehow I just knew that if I had male genitalia, my life would be complete. As a child, I prayed repeatedly for God to make me into a boy and became obsessed with my pursuit. However,…
Blown Away
The following testimony is from a Joshua Fellowship participant after completing the Holy Aggression Masculinity Course at the end of last summer: I went into the [weekend retreat] expecting, but not expecting much.

Holy Masculinity
Every summer, I lead young men through a curriculum I have developed on masculinity. The class is called Holy Aggression. The purpose of the class is to help these young men overcome passivity and face the challenges of life. I have so much fun teaching it! Two Gifts There are two precious…
The Road of Faith and Manhood
