S5E24 - Embracing being a SON or DAUGHTER of God with Elizabeth Woning

This week, Ken and Grant are joined by Elizabeth Woning. Elizabeth Woning is the founder of CHANGED. Here is a snapshot of her history. I "came out" in my early 20s and attended a Presbyterian Church (USA) seminary openly lesbian after questioning my sexuality for several years. As a student in seminary between 2000 and 2003, I lobbied for marriage and ordination of LGTBQ individuals and ministered among gay youth, espousing a theology that embraced homosexuality. Upon graduating, I served as a youth pastor in a small rural community, where an encounter with Jesus radically shifted my perspective. The love of God drew me into a revelation that led to repentance and healing. I married my husband, Doug, in 2005.

I co-founded the CHANGED Movement, a network of men and women who have walked away from LGBTQ identity. In addition to member support, the CHANGED Movement works with legislators and think tanks to protect the First Amendment Rights of all those seeking freedom from LGBTQ culture and its social labels.

I hold a Master's in Theology and am completing my Doctor of Ministry degree in New Testament Theology at Houston Theological Seminary at Houston Christian University in Texas. I am a licensed pastor and teach emerging leaders at Bethel Church's School of Ministry in Redding, California.
