The Beauty Of Brotherhood (Psalm 133)26 Sep 202200:40:01

Listen to my sermon about embodied brotherhood from the recent Husband Material Retreat in Santa Barbara.

Psalm 133 (NIV 1984)

"How good and pleasant it is
    when brothers live together in unity!
  It is like precious oil poured on the head,
    running down on the beard,
running down on Aaron's beard,
    down upon the collar of his robes.
  It is as if the dew of Hermon
     were falling on Mount Zion.
  For there the LORD bestows his blessing,
     even life forevermore."

The Beauty Of Brotherhood
Sermon on Psalm 133 by Drew Boa 
Sunday, September 11th, 2022 

  1. Embodied brotherhood is precious & rare
  2. Embodied brotherhood is powerful & refreshing
  3. Embodied brotherhood is eternal

Bent On Men, Part 2 (with Harrison Bly)29 Aug 202200:29:08

What does redemption look like for men who experience unwanted same-sex attraction? Harrison Bly grew up "too gay to be Christian, too Christian to be gay." In this episode, Harrison shares his story of freedom through vulnerability, sonship, brotherhood, and redefining masculinity.

Harrison Bly writes with a firm and unusual resolve about male sexuality. He uses story as a way to make sense of taboo subjects that are often over-simplified and misunderstood. Secretly gay in a conservative Christian world, Harrison compromised authenticity only to find shallow acceptance. On the crooked path to manhood, Harrison fumbled in the dark between ideologies on faith and homosexuality that failed to acknowledge his deepest wounds and longings. But through unplanned and unlikely relationships, Harrison discovered the transforming power of male love that reframed his obsessions, cravings, and curiosities, challenging everything he had come to accept about his masculinity and sexuality.
