She discusses how language matters when talking about LGBTQ people, the cost and beauty of following Jesus, and practical steps for churches and families to love without compromising biblical truth. Topics include Olivia’s coaching background, her spiritual turning point, forgiveness after being fired amid false accusations, her work with Campus Outreach ministering to female college athletes, accountability and discipleship, and how Christians can compassionately engage LGBTQ neighbors. Listeners will get practical guidance, encouragement for those wrestling with sexual brokenness, and ways to support Olivia’s ministry.
