I was lost in a painful journey, trapped in a long-term lesbian relationship that left me feeling unfulfilled despite a seemingly perfect life. Growing up in church, I battled identity conflicts and internal voids. Through the tug of the Holy Spirit, a divine intervention during a prophetic moment, and the courage to break away from a life that no longer served me, I surrendered everything to God. In that act of total surrender, I found deliverance, restoration, and a renewed sense of purpose. I now live with the conviction that God’s love is transformative, and I trust Him to lead me into a life of peace and wholeness.

I was born into a world of confusion and broken relationships, growing up without a consistent father figure. Early on, I was introduced to pornography and experienced molestation, which distorted my understanding of sexuality and gender. As I grew up, I struggled with same-sex attractions and a conflicting identity, often feeling torn between the worldly definitions of gender and the truth of God’s Word. Despite the turmoil, I was exposed to church through my aunt and encountered genuine expressions of faith that gradually opened my eyes. Eventually, I wrestled with my sinful nature and realized that salvation was not about conforming to societal standards, but about being transformed by Jesus Christ. When I truly surrendered to Him, He renewed my heart and identity, saving me from a life of confusion and despair.

I grew up wrestling with same‐sex attractions from an early age, feeling isolated and confused about my identity. Over time, through deep reflection on Scripture and the transforming power of Jesus, I experienced a profound shift in my heart. This journey led me from a life defined by internal conflict to one where I now live with hope, purpose, and a renewed focus on glorifying God. My story is shared so that others facing similar struggles may find encouragement in the truth of God’s redeeming love.
I grew up in Mexico with a difficult childhood marked by rejection from my father and early exposure to darkness through sexual abuse in a church setting. My mother had once been involved in witchcraft before she came to Christ, and demons seemed to plague our family with ongoing spiritual battles. Over the years, I found myself struggling with homosexual desires, addiction to pornography, and severe depression to the point of wanting God to end my life.
Despite feeling overwhelmed, I kept searching for help in prayer and through supportive believers. My mother encouraged me to learn about the power of fasting, and when I finally committed to a thorough water fast, the chains of confusion and lust began to break off me. I experienced deliverance, vomiting out the demonic oppression that had tormented me for so long. Although I stumbled at times—falling back into old habits—I pressed forward and discovered that consistent fasting, earnest prayer, deep forgiveness toward those who hurt me, and surrendering every area of my life to God brought about lasting freedom. Today, I testify that Jesus set me free from homosexuality, depression, suicidal thoughts, and spiritual bondage. He filled me with hope and a renewed sense of purpose. If God can transform my life, He can surely transform yours too.

I was once trapped in a lifestyle defined by my own desires, pursuing every pleasure without limits. Immersed in a world of sin and self-destruction, I experienced emptiness and the pain of broken relationships. Then the gospel reached me. I encountered the saving power of Jesus, and my life was radically transformed. Now, as the city director for Love Life Chicago, I serve as a living testimony to the restoration and redemption found in Christ. I share my story to encourage others that no matter how far you’ve fallen, God can rescue you and give you a new purpose.
We are so excited to have Juan Riesco as our Chicago, Illinois city director. 10 years ago, the Lord saved Juan out of a lifestyle of homosexuality, and through a series of providential events has now guided Juan into the Love Life family.
I began my life in deep pain—experiencing rejection and confusing abuse at an early age, which set the stage for a lifelong struggle with pornography and sexual addiction. At eight, I was saved at my little Baptist church, yet soon after, I discovered pornography in my father’s belongings. That discovery spiraled into a pattern of anonymous sexual encounters that left my marriage in shambles and my heart burdened with guilt. Over years of battling destructive habits, I sought help through counseling and involvement in disciple groups like Young Life. Through many painful trials and honest sharing in group Bible studies, I finally heard God’s gentle command to stop the cycle. By surrendering my secrets and embracing His unconditional love, I have been transformed. Today, I stand as a testimony of Jesus’ redemptive power—leaving behind a life of gay sex and porn, and stepping into a new identity in Christ.
I was born in 1929 in a time of hardship and grew up amid the chaos of the Depression and a disrupted family. To escape the turmoil, I retreated to the attic of our large Victorian house, where isolation set in. At age 13, a Christian group introduced me to the gospel for the first time, igniting a spark in my heart. Later, my pastor – a man whose own secret life conflicted with his public ministry – confronted me about my emerging homosexual identity. Confused and desperate for acceptance, I wrestled with my identity for years, living a life immersed in the gay culture of San Francisco. Over time, the emptiness and destructive lifestyle led me to a crisis point where I turned to God in prayer. That prayer marked a turning point: I encountered Jesus in a powerful way, and His forgiveness and love redeemed me from my past. Today, I stand as a testimony to the transformative power of Christ, having been restored and made new.
The father of the ex-gay movement tells his story of being groomed into homosexuality by his pastor in San Francisco but after many years in the lifestyle, turning his life over to Jesus Christ. It was 1973, and ministry to homosexuals had just begun, with Frank in the forefront.
I share my personal testimony of how I fell into a state of homosexual confusion and experienced deep emotional and spiritual turmoil from a troubled childhood and unstable family relationships. Despite the pain and struggles—including battling an eating disorder—I ultimately encountered the transforming power of Jesus Christ. Through painful experiences, conviction, and sincere repentance, I chose to leave behind a life that was not pleasing to God. Today, I stand redeemed as I have embraced biblical truth, experienced restoration in my identity and self-worth, and now live a life of obedience and trust in Jesus. My journey is a testament to the hope and healing that only Christ can provide.
I share my testimony of how, after becoming a Christian with a childlike faith, I began to see that the struggles with my gender identity and homosexuality were not permanent obstacles but challenges that Jesus could overcome. I explain how I walked away from my past, leaning on Scripture about God’s design of man and woman, and how conversations with my coach and the supportive intervention of believers like Bill and Sally helped me confront destructive patterns in my life. Through multiple painful setbacks, repentance, counseling, and prayer, I finally experienced a breakthrough. Today, I stand redeemed—having embraced a healthy, biblical understanding of femininity, formed a loving marriage, and built a family—all thanks to the transforming power of Jesus Christ.
I share my personal journey from a very young age when my mother’s words and a broken family system made me feel I needed to be a boy, forcing me to suppress my femininity. I endured painful experiences of abuse, abandonment, and rejection throughout my childhood and adolescence. Through heartbreak in early relationships and deep personal struggles, I eventually encountered the love and truth of Jesus Christ—especially during a pivotal moment on an airplane—which transformed my life. Today, I stand redeemed, with a restored identity in Christ, free from the confusion and hurt of my past.
