  • 114: Richard Harris lost his gay twin brother John to AIDS at 34. He shares what he wishes he'd said — and what families need to hear.
    Jun 9 2026
    What do you do when someone you love is living a gay lifestyle — and you watch them die from it? In this raw and deeply personal episode, Janet Boynes sits down with Richard Harris, Executive Director of Truth and Liberty (an Andrew Wommack Ministries outreach), for a conversation that goes far beyond headlines and policy debates. Richard and his twin brother John grew up in a home marked by extreme poverty, alcoholism, and an emotionally distant father. John always felt compared, rejected, and overlooked — and Richard only learned after John's death how deep that wound ran. John died of AIDS at 34, coming to faith in Christ in his final days in the hospital. Richard and Janet — who lost her own brother to AIDS in 1999 — open up about what it means to love a gay family member without compromising God's word, and without losing them either. In this conversation you will hear: How childhood rejection and a lack of affirmation can shape sexual identity What Richard wishes he had said and done differently with his brother Why John stayed in the gay lifestyle even after his AIDS diagnosis — and what finally changed How loneliness drives people into and keeps them in homosexuality The conversion therapy ban in Colorado and what was at stake at the Supreme Court How Truth and Liberty responded to the assassination of Charlie Kirk — including snipers on the roof A closing word of encouragement for anyone struggling with same-sex attraction This is the kind of honest, compassionate conversation the church desperately needs to have. Whether you have a family member living a gay lifestyle, or you are personally wrestling with same-sex attraction, this episode will meet you with truth and love.

  • 113: Standing Firm in Love: A Dutch Christian's Perspective on Biblical Truth and Family
    May 26 2026
    What does it look like to stand for biblical truth in a country that legalized same-sex marriage before almost anywhere else in the world? In this episode of Healing and Made Free, Janet Boynes sits down with Eelko Sieval, a Dutch Christian, entrepreneur, and newly appointed board member of Janet Boynes Ministries. Eelko joins us from the Netherlands — the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage in 2001 — to share his powerful perspective on how Christians can respond to LGBTQ+ cultural pressure with both truth and love. Eelko opens up about his personal faith revival in 2020, how he found Janet's ministry through an online search for biblical answers on homosexuality, and what compelled him to translate Janet's book "Called Out" into Dutch so it could reach his community. Together, Janet and Eelko tackle some of the most honest questions Christian families are facing today: How do you love a family member living a gay lifestyle without endorsing it? How do you protect your grandchildren at family gatherings without rejecting your family? What does "compassion without compromise" actually look like in everyday life? How do you maintain spiritual authority in your home when culture pushes back? Eelko also shares why he said yes to joining the ministry board, his vision for bringing Janet's 2026 conference to the Netherlands, and how the legacy of Charlie Kirk's life has renewed his commitment to speak truth fearlessly. Whether you're a pastor, a parent, a grandparent, or simply a believer trying to navigate one of the defining cultural issues of our time — this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

    May 12 2026

    Pastor Bryan Chapman opens up about leaving the homosexual lifestyle after 3 years, the father wound that opened the door, and how God restored his identity.

    In this episode of Healing and Made Free, Janet Boynes sits down with Pastor Bryan Chapman — a minister who spent three years in a homosexual relationship during seminary and has now been free for over two decades. Bryan shares how emotional wounds and the absence of a father's validation opened the door to same-sex attraction, what finally brought him to a turning point, and what he wants Gen Z and their parents to know about identity, healing, and the hope that's available through Christ.
