Ex-Gays?

Jun 5–6, 2008 - comment

In a culture which insists that science has declared homosexuality to be normal and unchangeable, it is refreshing to hear clear voices that are not afraid to challenge conventional thinking. On today’s For Faith and Family with Dr. Richard Land our special guest is Dr. Stanton L. Jones, co-author of the book Ex-Gays?: A Longitudinal Study of Religiously Mediated Change in Sexual Orientation. Dr. Jones is the Provost of Wheaton College and a Professor of Psychology. He and Dr. Mark Yarhouse, a professor Regent College, have completed a rigorous three year study of people who desired to change their sexual orientation.

topic(s): Family, Sexual Purity, Homosexuality
