Its not gay if its in a field
Scott Rae : We're here today with a fascinating guest for us. Scott Rae : Welcome to the podcast, Think Biblically, conversations on faith and culture. She is a dynamic speaker and mentor to young adults wrestling with same sex attraction. I thought it was kind of like Katy Perry says, where you just, you kiss a girl and you might like it.
She's got a fascinating story to tell about her own personal journey. I was depressed. So kind of sneaking behind, hooking up with women, being with them. Raised, mom and dad, two older brothers, beautiful family. So go through the list of why "its not gay" and if there's any other situations you would like to add, please email them to us and we will try to add them to the list as soon as possible.
Basically what happens when you take the "I'm not gay, it was just in college" joke and keep making it more and more ridiculous. All orders are custom made and most ship worldwide within 24 hours. High quality Its Not Gay If Its In A Field-inspired gifts and merchandise.
The joke is that they are so in denial of being gay, yet preformed such an overtly gay act, that they have to come up with some weird rule to convince themselves they're not gay. There was one girl in particular, my senior year of high school. If anybody knew me, that's just not even the fiber of my character, but I became depressed, lying, sneaking and living this kind of double life.
So it ended up leading me towards this path of like a double life. So rather than set it up for you, I think I'll just let you kind of tell us a little bit of your story and how you got to be where you are today, particularly with your Overcome Ministries. Knowing the Lord, I found out even still today, is much different than knowing him personally and in choosing to walk with him, but always knew about Jesus and that he's the savior and he's the only way.
Well, she was right. There’s a lot of homoerotic humor in the Marine Corps. I really Looking back, I'm so grateful. I asked the Lord to show me my heart and that's a whole nother podcast, but he did show me and that's actually when I moved to Ethiopia, but I still wouldn't deal with this reality of the door that I had opened and walked through when I was 17 with same sex attraction.
Kim Zember : Awesome. Join us for a very touching and insightful account of how transformation occurred in her life and how she mentors others who struggle with same sex attractions. Kim Zember is founder of Overcome Ministries , whose purpose is to be an outlet of love and hope for young adults and adults struggling with same-sex attraction, and support for their families.
Yeah, so I grew up Catholic, baptized as a baby and really grew up knowing the Lord. So I was 17 years old and I decided to feed that desire and her and I ended up being physical. As I’ve already mentioned, no repeal of any policy could possibly make the Marine Corps any more gay than it already was.
At 23 had a radical encounter with the Lord. Her name is Kim Zember. In that, kind of led Things didn't quite work out as I thought they would with the girl. Fast forward, on and off with different women, all while dating men on the forefront. I was hiding. I did like it, but she didn't unpack what the rest of that might look like for the years to come.
She's the founder and head of, of a ministry called Overcome Ministries. That opens so many doors that I would have never ever imagined. I actually ended up feeding this desire that started to arise, which was for women. T-shirts, posters, stickers, home decor, and more, designed and sold by independent artists around the world.
So many times I’ve heard the various expressions, “what happens in the field stays in the field” and “it’s not. What do you expect from a bunch of men with nothing but their own bodies to make jokes about? Not only then, but even now of the family that he blessed me with, but things started to shift in high school.
