Listen on Spotify Send voice message Available on Lucas Wilson and Living Into the Questions (Live) Out Loud: LGBT Stories of Faith Feb 10, 2022 Share 00:00 50:53 Lucas Wilson and Living Into the Questions (Live) On a very special live episode from the 2022 Q Christian Fellowship Conference, we speak with Lucas Wilson.
Lucas attended gay conversion therapy while studying at Liberty University and not only lived to tell the tale, but became an advocate for abolishing this practice altogether. A PhD Candidate at Florida Atlantic University, with a Master of Theological Studies from Vanderbilt University, Lucas has begun working in the field of critical evangelicalism studies.
In our conversation, we learn about Lucas' conversion therapy experience and how inauthentic it made him feel. He also shares how eye-opening it was to continue his education after Liberty, which ultimately shaped what his faith and studies looks like today. He also tells us more about the recent lawsuit he helped file, calling to question whether religious colleges should receive federal funding while actively discriminating against LGBTQ+ students.
