Tom and Erin welcome Dr. Mark Yarhouse and Dr. Julia Sadusky, co-authors of Emerging Sexual Identities. We dive into sexual identity language and the reality that Gen Z is identifying in more diverse, specific ways than any previous generation. Mark and Julia explain the concept of residual, dominant, and emergent taxonomies for sexual identity language, such as “homosexual,” “gay,” and “greysexual,” respectively. We also learn about the coining of the term “heterosexual,” the nonjudgmental merits of queer theory, and how people are holding faith and sexuality together and separately. How do we as a community integrate the two in a healthy way? Stay tuned for the end of the episode as Tom and Erin debrief their conversation with Mark and Julia. They also give updates on our ministry’s current funding status and the future of the YOFcast, as well as the other shows on our YOF Podcast Network!

Tom welcomes new friend Drew Boa of Husband Material to dive into his book, Outgrow Porn. Tom shares his favorite tools from Drew’s toolbox for overcoming porn and unwanted sexual behaviors, including the breathe-observe-attune (BOA) method, “connecting the dots” from shame to glory and loss to connection, and non-dominant handwriting to connect with your inner child. Adult Tom vulnerably shares some recent journal entries with Little Tom as he reflects on his own journey with loneliness and restlessness, particularly amongst other boys, and how this has fed an often irresistible attraction or fetish for certain aspects of straight men.

Tom welcomes back his younger brother Andy for this annual episode of previewing the Super Bowl! It’s the Seattle Seahawks vs. the New England Patriots for Super Bowl LX. Before we get to Andy’s top stories of this year’s big game, we catch up on the biggest year of his life with a new baby girl – and also that the Eagles won last year’s Super Bowl. We sneak in some Taylor Swift talk, including her podcast appearance with the Kelce brothers, and her future mother-in-law appearing on this season of The Traitors. Andy answers some silly yet relevant questions from our YOBBERS community, and he gets vulnerable about why football and the lesser things in life stress him out way more than the larger things do.

We are back with our second YOScast episode with Erin, Lin, and Jericho! Realizing your attraction to women well past puberty is a very common phenomenon amongst our community. Why?

We conclude our two-part episode on the church with stories of healing from church hurt and growth in the church. We also discuss the notion of building church resiliency amid our frustrations and hang-ups with the church. How have we grown in such resiliency? Despite how the church may still fail us, how can we place our ultimate security in Jesus as we live out the truth that we are the church?

It’s the premiere episode of Your Other Family Podcast! Or, the YOFcast, as we’ll also be known. Join hosts Tom and Erin for a brief origin story of how Your Other Brothers and Your Other Sisters came to be, along with some amazing topics we would discuss at length on this show – if only we had the full funding to do so!

Tom welcomes back Dawson to recap our seventh YOB retreat! We share our perspective about our retreat’s first-ever prayer labyrinth exercise, and we hit some of the other highlights of our weekend together in western Pennsylvania, including a manly calisthenics workout and a mysterious visitor to our lodge porch. Dawson shares his reaction to being crowned our first-ever “Mr. Masculinity,” and Tom shares a profound retreat moment that crescendoed with fifty men huddling around him in prayer.

Where have we experienced hurt in the church, whether from our sexuality or otherwise? How do we continue in spiritual communities after experiencing church hurt? Join Tom, Ryan, and Matt for a raw discussion on our community’s church hurt stories. We’ll dive into the other side of hurt in a follow-up episode, but for now, we want to honor the pain, the loneliness, the frustration, the rejection, the abuse, the trauma, and the injustice of experiencing hurt in a place and with a people where we should have experienced life.

Andrew returns to dive deeper into his blog, “A Straight Man Won’t Fix You.” What led him to write this post, and long did he ponder it? Join Tom and Andrew for a discussion on the idolization of friendships with straight men, theorizing why some men in Side B spaces get drawn into the "mythical" realm of straight men.

After a couple years of discussions, spreadsheets, form submissions, and more legal fees than you could imagine, Your Other Family is now a government-recognized nonprofit organization! The IRS approved our nonprofit, and all membership dues and donations to our ministry are officially tax-deductible, including all amounts given retroactively on our new giving platform. We still have a journey yet ahead of us to close our remaining funding gaps, but this is a huge step forward. Tom recounts our recently held YOB retreat, which focused on God’s call for Abram to “go” – and so, we too are going.

Learn why this topic has become something of Ryan’s “brand,” including a perspective shift that’s helped many members of our YOB community.

Welcome to our debut episode of the YOScast! Johana-Marie and Ashley join Erin to discuss the Life on Side B podcast episode on women's inclusion in Side B spaces (S3Ep14). As listeners, Erin and Johana-Marie talk about our big takeaways from this conversation, and Ashley recalls her experience co-hosting this episode. It’s been four years since it aired, so what has changed? Has anything stayed the same? We reflect on what gaps we still see in the Side B world, discuss how YOB has impacted us as women, and build up excitement for what Your Other Sisters will add to our movement.

Tom here, and it's my monthly "State of the Sparrow" for Your Other Family! It feels good to say I am now executive director of this new ministry. This month we finally made the switch away from Patreon to our new ministry giving platform. I actually got emotional deactivating our old way of supporting YOB. But I'm excited for what's to come as I update y'all on the resumption of regular blog/podcast content, as well as our next YOB+YOS membership call and our 7th YOB retreat this month in Pennsylvania. I'll share more about the numbers in my next update pod, but we would love to gain some additional support from outside our existing YOB+YOS membership. If you've been following our content and/or partaking in our community for a while, would you please prayerfully ponder this? Is there a married couple, parent, sibling, friend, elder, pastor, or even church who knows your story, and maybe even knows about your involvement in YOB or YOS, who you might consider asking to support YOF? 200 + 200 = LIFE LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE YOF General Giving YOB Membership YOS Membership YOF Home Tom's email: tom@yourotherfamily.org you are not alone; even the sparrow finds a home

After 2+ years, we’re back with a new YOBcast! OGs Tom and Ryan welcome new YOBcast regular Matt as we catch up on the last couple years of our nonprofit journey. Fittingly, with the formation of Your Other Sisters alongside YOB under our nonprofit ministry of Your Other Family, we discuss the topic of WOMEN. How well have we connected with women from childhood to today? Did we genuinely experience adolescent crushes on girls or even try dating women? How has our sexuality impacted our friendships with women in adulthood, and how have we honestly felt about the formation of this Your Other Sisters community? COMMENT ON THIS EPISODE Tell us a story about your relationship with girls in childhood or women in adulthood. Where have relationships with the opposite sex been easy, life-giving, and/or difficult?

We're back! Daniel joins Tom to recap this year's YOBBERS Retreat. As a newer member of YOB leadership, how did Daniel enjoy this retreat compared to others? We reflect on this distinction of leadership and participation with our retreat, including the challenge of not just serving a role or a function all weekend long. We also dive into our retreat's first-time art piece -- a locked birdcage with one sparrow inside and two sparrows outside -- and how this piece led to some interesting reflections from the YOBBERS.
