It's only with the lord that we can leave that behind. And this is also not about being like you know, like this stereotypical man and woman. You just have to be a child of god, you know, and that happens when you receive christ in you, when you have the holy spirit.
Have you ever felt like you're living a life that doesn't truly reflect who you are? Sihol Situmorang knows that feeling all too well. Growing up in a Christian household, Sihol faced the dual challenges of an abusive mother and an absent father, which led him to same-sex attraction. Despite knowing the Bible, he struggled deeply with his faith and his sexuality, trying repeatedly to change himself but feeling trapped by the belief that being gay was his identity.
His turning point came in a moment of profound clarity when he heard an audible voice say, 'Only fools reject my perfect love'. This moment was a wake-up call for Sihol, leading him to realize that his worth wasn't defined by his struggles but by his acceptance of God's love. In this heartfelt episode of 'The Call with Nancy Sabato', Sihol shares his emotional journey from confusion and pain to finding peace and purpose through faith.
He emphasizes that true identity isn't about fitting into societal norms but about embracing faith and the transformative power it holds. Whether you're wrestling with your own identity or seeking stories of redemption, Sihol's story is a testament to the healing power of faith.
