ABOUT BECKET:
Becket Cook was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. He attended Jesuit College Preparatory
School of Dallas.
After graduating from Austin College in Texas, Becket moved to Los Angeles to pursue his
dream of writing and acting, finding success in both. He eventually went on to become a
production designer working with the top photographers and directors in the world on fashion
shoots for magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and for ad campaigns such as Gap,
L’Oréal Paris, and Nike.
Finding a new sense of freedom in L.A., Becket also fully engaged in his new life as a gay man.
He had a series of many relationships with men throughout the next fifteen years.
In September of 2009, Becket met a stranger at a coffee shop in Silver Lake who invited him to
his church in Hollywood called Reality L.A. Becket reluctantly agreed to attend the service.
After hearing the sermon that Sunday, Becket was utterly transformed by the gospel and gave his
life to Christ. He also knew on that day when God revealed Himself to him that homosexuality
was a sin and that he could no longer live that life. Becket was more than happy to count
everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus his Lord.
Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences
helping believers (and non-believers) understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally,
and personally. Balancing grace and truth when teaching on this subject is of primary
importance. His goal is to challenge the current cultural narrative about sexuality in general and
homosexuality in particular by demonstrating through his personal testimony and biblical truths
that, yes, homosexuality is still a sin, and that following Christ is infinitely more satisfying and
joyous.
He has lived all over the world in major cities such as Rome, Vienna, and Tokyo.
Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of
Arts in Theology.
Becket’s book, A Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption, with a
foreword by Francis Chan, published by Thomas Nelson, released July 30, 2019.
Wow, I cant' believe someone from that family is a Christian. Cool to see. Her half sister Mackenzie and father were apparently lovers. I think thats the same family…
You two be crayzee!! 🤣 I 💖love💖 you guys! I felt like we were all just sitting on the couch having a chat 😃 Does it weird you both out that so many people you don't personally know could feel like that about you? I think it means you're doing what you're meant to do 😃 I'm so glad you have each other to be a Jesus Freak with! 😁 Just added Billy, Stephen, Carnie & Wendy to my Salvation prayer list 💕 May God keep blessing you both so abundantly xoxo
I wish for Becket to have the energy that he wants to match his mind but I also know that God knows him well and knew he had what he needed to do the job he wanted him to do in this world! Who knows if you would have been able to slow down enough to accept the charge that Jesus had for your life if you were more tightly wound or moved more quickly through life! Be glad for what you are and pray for God to use what you have to it’s fullest!
Hey Becket, I'm not sure which video you were talking about watching the Sopranos. I wanted to recommend watching something on Pureflix when you want something clean to watch. I love it.
BOTH of you—Don’t Ever change by not talking as much abt Jesus!!! No, that’s your hungry spirit filled passion!!!! Jesus Loves it!!! Just think of it this way, We wouldn’t want Jesus to lessen the way He thinks, adores & talks to the Father abt us would we? And think of how powerful our words are talking & worshipping Him vs. empty worldly words🤔Ya know what I mean? ☺️ Love this episode of you two w/the “Q & A”!!! I’ll pray for your ppl you most want to come to Christ also!!!! 🙏🏼💖💝 Ooh & my husband at almost 59 yrs old wakes up at 4-5:00 a.m. & runs on high energy full of pep & positivity ALL day until he passes out abt 9 p.m. 😳🤭🤦🏼♀️Always has been that way!!! Peace of Christ ya all!!! 😇🥰🤗🤗
My Grandma Louisa May died sitting on a chair in th rest home.she had just been talking about her relationship with Jesus. She just stopped talking and was gone. Looking forward to hanging out in Glory with my grandparents. 😊
I love her answer on fame: "The only Person who should be 'famous' is Christ." Our nature is such that we probably aren't equipped to handle it anyhow.
His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set…His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:..Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
you guys are too fun!! I love this friendship. (i also think it'd be fun to hang out with you!) Her answer 'it's like God's taking a nap on me' hahahaha
I refuse to retract my Winnie The Poo statement- PERIOD.

Loved this, lots of laughs and really enjoyed getting to know you both. Adding names to my prayers for salvation. God's Blessings to you! 🌟
“Ariel” means, Lion of God. Jesus has had his eye on you from before you were born. Wow….
How lovely it would be to have these two over for dinner. The presence of Jesus in your lives is so beautiful. And fun!
