At an age when most boys were watching VeggieTales, Ken Williams was forced to watch homosexual pornography by the child sexual predator who had been molesting him.

Little Kenny was just eight years old when the trauma began.

Now several states — including VP candidate Tim Walz’s Minnesota — are unlawfully banning the therapy that saved Ken’s life. We will be filing suit against Walz and his Minnesota mess that harms children.

Save lives and fight the bans on Christian counseling

“I was desperately confused by the experiences and, from there, lived with overwhelming shame that I kept hidden for the next ten years,” Ken says.

Bullying in school compounded the confusion. Ken says he was the “scrawniest” kid in every class from kindergarten through high school.

Bigger boys on the playground made fun of Ken’s small size, calling him “faggot” and “homo.”

Ken soon learned to stay away from any situation that might lead him to be alone with other boys, just to avoid the pain of yet more bullying and abuse. “I distanced myself from most boys—definitely the rough and tumble ones—and canceled the masculinity around me as best as I could.”

But the absence of masculinity in his life left an emptiness that the LGBTQ cult was more than happy to twist into something perverse.

“While I rejected the brash, masculine stereotypical guy, I actively sought out whichever male peer I deemed to be strong who was also kind,” Ken says. “If he showed me attention or affirmation, I felt valuable. If I could have his undivided attention, I was okay for the minute.”

“By middle school, I was experiencing same-sex attraction, which caused me to hate myself all the more because I didn’t want to have those desires. I developed one unhealthy friendship after the next through my teens, trying to find myself in each young man.” It was “[c]odependency, plain and simple. But no matter how much time or attention I received from a guy, it never was enough, even in the times it turned sexual. My ‘friend’ would head home for the evening, and I was lost again. Obsessed. Depressed.”

By the time he was 17, Ken felt so helpless he began planning suicide. “I just couldn’t imagine fighting the same-sex desires my whole life or bearing the weight of the loneliness and self-hatred I felt on a daily basis.”

Scared that he would actually go through with his plan, Ken finally confessed to his parents and asked them to take him to a Christian counselor.

“Those five years of [Christian] counseling saved my life,” Ken says, “because it gave me encouragement and a totally confidential space to share everything. All the shame over sexual encounters, pent up anger from being bullied, feelings of inadequacy, codependent fixations, and loneliness.”

About 110 cities and states have BANNED the Christian counseling that saved Ken’s life. Liberty Counsel has overturned 23 of those bans, but we still have 87 more to knock down. We are filing suits in three more states, to set even more people free. One includes Gov. Tim Walz in Minnesota.

Ken’s counselor encouraged him to join a support group, and for the first time, he realized he was not alone. “The group pointed me to books, which I devoured, containing examples of people whose sexual feelings had changed over time. The books also helped me discover underlying issues contributing to my sexual identity confusion.”

“I then attended a ministry school and my addictions ..., as well as my bent toward codependent fixation, dramatically waned,” Ken says. “There, I began to experience God as ... a kind Father who could be trusted. These were attributes of God I’d not known before.”

In time, Ken says he was no longer sexually aroused by men. He met a lovely young woman at church where he found himself “captivated by the sight and thought of her.” The couple married and now have four beautiful children.

“My wife is my closest and most treasured companion... Today, I have peace. I’m blessed with plenty of friends, and I feel known and valued by even the men in my community. I enjoy my life. None of that was true before.”

Ken’s story is remarkable, but not unique. I’ve had the honor of getting to know many young men and women whose lives have literally been saved by Christian counseling. And that’s why Liberty Counsel is fighting so hard to overturn every unlawful ban on this special practice — including the ban recently enacted by Tim Walz, Minnesota governor turned vice presidential candidate.

MN Gov. Tim Walz BANNED Christian change counseling, outlawing this lifesaving practice, perhaps because it is so effective in treating gender dysphoria and unwanted sexual attractions.

Liberty Counsel is suing Tim Walz and Minnesota for depriving people of their right to choose lifesaving Christian counseling.

Liberty Counsel has overturned 23 of these bans. With your help, we’ll overturn Gov. Tim Walz’s ban too.

I’ve written you about a lot of spiritual darkness lately. From the Olympic celebrations of fallen demons, and the Jezebel spirit killing babies even as it seeks to mutilate and sterilize our kids. The world seems a little dark.

That darkness seems powerful, but there’s a truth even eight-year-old cartoon watchers know. As VeggieTales reminds us, “God is bigger than the boogie man.”
