253-Q&A: Marriage vs. Singleness, Helicopter Parents, LGBTQ Family

Posted by: WCSG & Hole In My Heart | Friday, January 2nd, 2026 (12:00am)

Happy New Year! We’re kicking off the year by diving into your thoughtful questions, including:  

How do we find the courage to speak truth with love?
How can I love a gay friend well when they enter a same-sex relationship?
How can a same-sex attracted man discern between marriage and singleness?
How do I navigate pornography and masturbation conversations in a mixed-faith marriage?
What healthy boundaries can we set for our kids when it comes to preventing sexual abuse without becoming “helicopter” parents?
How do we engage and disciple our kids when family members identify as gay or trans?  

Thanks for bringing the content! We’re so glad you are here.

Encouraging Words From Your Bible

Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
