In today's episode, Becket Cook sits down with Tia Arshad for a deeply moving and powerful testimony of God's radical rescue. Born in Libya to a Christian family, abandoned as a young child in a Pakistani boarding school after her mother's sudden death, and later facing rejection and hardship in the UK, Tia spent eight years living as a lesbian—finding temporary belonging in gay clubs amid heavy drinking, chain-smoking, and profound emptiness. Yet through a series of divine interventions, terrifying dreams, and a life-altering supernatural moment, God dramatically broke through, leading her to encounter Jesus in Scripture and walk away from that life entirely.
This raw conversation uncovers the deep impact of trauma, the emptiness of alternative lifestyles, and the unmatched freedom and satisfaction found only in Christ—no going back to “Egypt.” A must-watch if you're wrestling with same-sex attraction, rejection, addiction, doubt in God's love, or wondering how the church can better welcome those leaving LGBTQ+ identities.
