In this first edition of Never Stand Down, a Filipino American father and pastor reflects on the pivotal moments that drove him to question the anti-LGBTQ sermons he had espoused his entire life. His change of heart only intensified when his youngest son came out to him as a gay teen and sparked a national standoff with the largest Protestant denomination in America, the Southern Baptist Church.
