Homosexuality 101 - Dr. Julie Harren Hamilton


Dr. Julie Hamilton's session is full of insights, truth and compassion regarding the topic of homosexuality and what the research actually says. She begins with audience assessment questions and dispelling the myths and misinformation regarding homosexuality with questions like, "Is someone born gay or do they choose homosexuality?" She then covers developmental factors that can contribute to setting the stage for homosexual desire and then what to do about it all for the Christian. Her expertise is matched with her compassionate approach which is so incredibly refreshing on the current cultural stage. Dr. Julie Harren Hamilton is a licensed marriage and family therapist with a private practice in south Florida. She is also former President of the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality and speaks in a variety of contexts on issues related to marriage, family life, spiritual growth, and homosexuality. She is co-editor of The Handbook for Unwanted Homosexual Attractions: A Guide to Treatment.
