In this episode, Dr. Lucas Wilson shares his experience in
surviving conversion therapy. Growing up in evangelical
Christianity Lucas struggled to accept his queerness. Overwhelmed
with shame, he signed up for conversion therapy at the
fundamentalist Christian Liberty University he was a student at.
Lucas shares the details of the practices he had to go through,
his journey of coming out and accepting his gayness, and his work
in helping Christians reconcile their faith and
sexuality.  


 


About Me 





I’m George Lizos, spiritual teacher, psychic healer, and #1
bestselling author. Growing up in a small Christian community, I
was judged and rejected for being gay and different. After a
futile two-year attempt to change who I was born to be, I called
myself a human abomination and almost took my own life.
Fortunately, in my darkest moment, I saw the light and ventured
on a healing journey of love, forgiveness, and spiritual
awakening. 


 


Yet, my gay dating life since hasn’t always been all roses and
rainbows, and my past dramas and traumas have definitely kept
things spicy. Fast forward past many awkward dates and
disappointing sex, I Created Can’t Host to challenge toxic gay
stereotypes, explore the complex dynamics of gay sex and
relationships, and create opportunities for healing and growth.
