On Jeffrey McCall, former leader of Freedom March
Here at CHANGED, we are saddened by Jeffrey McCall’s public announcement to return to the identity of Scarlett. At the same time, we refuse to believe that God is finished. Jeffrey is a friend and someone of great value to us and to God. There could be many reasons he has returned to the identity of Scarlett, and we continue to speak privately with him and pray for him as a team.
Please join us in praying for his safety, heart, and life in Christ.

Biden’s LGBT Executive Order Seen by Some as Attack on Civil Rights
“So-called conversion therapy is a pejorative phrase that is being used to promote state-sanctioned viewpoint discrimination,” Woning told The Epoch Times. “LGBTQ-identifying people deserve the right to follow their conscience, even when it means receiving support to diminish unwanted sexual feelings. Such bans dramatically oversimplify the lived experience of anyone who identifies as LGBTQ. They offer only one route for people to follow, no matter their faith or conscience. And so, anyone who doesn’t endorse Gay Pride for their own life is disallowed counseling that addresses trauma and emotional distress related to their sexual identity. In the end, counseling bans cause harm and simply limit everyone’s freedom.”

Is there a better way forward for LGBT?
Christian Post—
We must all see the vision of restoration of our personhood that Christ offers. The goal isn’t “straight” the goal is human, redeemed. Then we will be free from every life-dominating behavior that draws us away from Christ’s vision for human identity, whether in singleness or marriage. Only then can we become the family and the body of Christ that brings healing to the nations—together.

Yes. CHANGED Is Possible
Decision Magazine—
Williams and Woning approached state assembly members, sharing their personal testimonies, but were consistently met with doubt.
“Most were incredulous,” Woning says. “We heard assembly members say, ‘I don’t believe your testimony’ and ‘I don’t believe there are other people like you.’”
Williams and Woning set out to prove that there was indeed a large community of people who have experienced a change in their sexual orientation through an active, personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Media celebrating ‘Gay Pride Month’ ignore victims of the Sexual Revolution
LifeSite News—
June 4, 2019 (Daily Signal) — June has been declared "Pride Month," and we're supposed to celebrate those "coming out" and living a "gay" life.
June 12 will mark the third anniversary of the Pulse gay nightclub mass shooting in Orlando, Florida, that left 49 dead. Some will no doubt connect those two things to claim America hates people who have same-sex attraction and to make new demands for affirmation of homosexuality.
