ABOUT THIS EPISODE
She planned to have a sex change operation. Today, she lives as a woman — and she has a dissertation full of research to prove her transformation wasn't an accident.
In this episode of Calibrate Conversations, we sit down with Linda Seiler — a woman who identified as transgender and same-sex attracted from childhood — and Andrew Rodriguez, a licensed professional counselor, to tackle one of the most controversial topics in culture and the church right now: conversion therapy.
Is it harmful? Is it even real? And what does the research actually say?
We break down:
* What "conversion therapy" actually is (vs. what the media says it is)
* The Pila & Sutton 2021 longitudinal study showing measurable change IS possible
* Linda's personal story of transformation through surrender to Jesus
* Why the opposite of homosexuality isn't heterosexuality — it's holiness
* How James 5:16 and community played a role in Linda's healing journey
* What the church gets right and wrong about same-sex attraction
This isn't a political conversation. It's a Gospel one.
