ABOUT BECKET:
Becket Cook was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. He attended Jesuit College Preparatory
School of Dallas. After graduating from college, 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.

fathers, father figures are foundation of family, faith, society 🥺🙏💪
I take my grandsons to Trail Life it’s a Christian boys group and they are learning character and morals-meets twice a month and it has an extra activity every month. This is the first year and the boys have really liked it a lot. Father is not involved in their lives, so I’m the only grandma there. It is a blessing
Is that in arizona?
Trail Life is great!
I had my son in Royal Rangers - a Christian scouting organization similar to Trail Life.
Most important topic ever! I’m a woman but dad would take us three girls camping, fishing, canoeing and hiking. And we saw his woodwork and how much all these things gave him. My brother came later but then he joined dad in his wilderness hiking group of usually just guys. So happy to see this program for boys and men.
Awesome, I hope and pray more boys and men will join this needed ministry 🙏💖👏
This is awesome. We live outside of Phoenix and my boys don’t have an active father. This is amazing. Thank you Lord
Thanks for this show Beckett. Its great to see a young man reaching out to other men. The premise of the organization is fantastic, prayers it continues to grow 🙏
Thank you precious Becket. I pray God bless, keep and protect you always.
Thank you! God Bless
I would’ve loved for my son to have gone through this program. He was in scouts, but his father really wasn’t investing in our marriage or our kids as they were growing up. I couldn’t be mom and dad for our children. My son only had an older sister.
May God bless and guide your work with these boys.
As a now divorced mom, I think this is wonderful and desperately needed.
I married someone who claimed to have accepted Christ, but fell away early in our marriage. Our son and daughter had a horrible childhood , despite my best efforts. The culture took the place of their parents and family and it breaks my heart.
Thank you for stepping up to address this deep need in boys and men. They need mentors and encouragement.
Know that God can still redeem what was lost in your children's lives. 🙂
Such a good idea, it's so important, specially for boys! (But a girl also badly needs a good father, or at least a father figure. A different problem.)
I can relate to everything you said. Married a man of the church who turned out to have a secret life and it fractured our family. Despite my best efforts, three of my kids have turned away from God.
Thank you again @Becketcook for letting us share what we our doing with our nonprofit!
I'm 73, a woman, and a native Arizonan. My dad was an outdoorsman, and our home was graced by mounted heads of deer, javalina, and elk. What a wonderful ministry! Our son in TX is leading his 4 sons in outdoor activities and also a Trail Life group. They love the out-of-doors!
Beckett I am absolutely so blessed by your testimony. I work at a church and am so glad to be able to resource folks with your videos and book!
Thank you! God Bless
Great show. May God bless this gentleman for the work he is doing. 🙏
Very inspiring testimony, that I think a lot of people can relate to. Thank you and God bless you.
beautiful testimony and wonderful ministry
God bless them for what they are doing to raise up confident boys that will one day lead families.
God bless you, Becket.
God Bless
One of the most organic “testimony-to- mission” transitions I’ve ever heard; reminds me of the epistle of James: meat & potatoes of the Gospel. So grateful for a brother like Luke💔❤️🩹❤️
Thanks Becket, another great interview with Luke. We need men who can help other men and boys learn about stewardship, relationship, and what being a man of God looks like.❤
Fatherless children are so vulnerable but thank God this man was saved from death and is using him for His glory. Thank you Jesus for holding our hand in the journey.
Thank you. I work in the Az child well fare system. I will spread the news about this great resource.
Wonderful hearing about Luke’s ministry. Certainly a need for it
EXCELLENT topic, thank you Beckett❤!
Sounds awesome! Thank you, Luke!
Excellent, this is wonderful 😊 I was the 10th of 11 kids and we went camping for vacation. Gods creation is healing and beautiful 🤩
Amen! God Bless
Becket, I love that you are a great listener to your guest and also ask thoughtful questions. It is great to hear about your personal experiences related to the show's topic. Keep up your good work!
Sanctification is a process that takes time, my granddaughter is in gymnastics and softball
He’s Doing some great work
Thank you Becket this is wonderful!!
Wonderful episode! Glad this brother took this step well & wanting to reach boys & young men going through fatherless situations through his non-profit. The Lord continue to bless Luke & this ministry planting seeds the the boys & men coming into this program. It is so needed in this time. We gotta put a limit for people in general to not be on their phones all the time as well as social media. God bless you brother Beckett
Thank you! God Bless
Becket, you have the very best interviews with ordinary people - thank you so much
God Bless
This made me so emotional! this is wonderful activity for kids who needs fathers. growing up, I've seen my brother didn't have a personal relationship with our dad. but my brother still turned out to be a wonderful young man. but its sad to see how when he is with our dad its business, there's no personal relationship with him and our dad. which I understand cause our dad was abusive growing up and to see young kids have a wonderful loving relationship with their fathers or a father figure is just so inspiring!
National? Let’s make it international, I’d be more than happy to help set up a similar program in my country.
I pray that other men who watch this will consider setting up similar programs in their local area.
Beckett, you are an artist, we are not all the same, and most artists do not like camping or hunting, that is what I have observed. At least I love nature but I don't like camping, not if I don't have a bed or a bathroom nearby. However, I loved the idea of the brother Luke, and yes, it is great, especially for these new generations who, as you say, don't let go of their cell phones, they just want to get her heads into their cell phones.
Great episode and great ministry, thank you both!❤
Excellent 🤗🇬🇧
Amen to this program! I am all for raising boys to be men or even men to be men. I am shocked how the enemy is making boys more and more feminine. Some guys now wear pearl necklaces and do their hair in a ballerina bun. I never thought I would see those things.
The devil has made a concerted effort to fight against the design the Lord instituted in the beginning. He made male and female and told them to go out and replenish the earth. People are killing their children, blurring the lines between male and female and refusing to reproduce or mutilating their bodies so they won’t be able to. It goes on and on.
I've been following you, Becket, for a good while. I finally have the book on my Kindle. I just looked you up on the internet to see if I could find your testimony for a friend who will be teaching a SS class about the Holy Spirit. What I found was false information, partiularly that you are married. It was crazy. I hope you can get that corrected! I wish my friend will get your book. She will love it! God bless you!
God Bless
Thank you for this interview!
Praise Him for this ministry, for Luke’s desire to bless other kids who have experienced what he did & to make a gospel difference in their lives!
Fantastic to hear of God working in and through His creation!
Thank you for sharing these redemptive true stories!!!
Becket, you may or may not appreciate this, but fathers can play a huge role in sexuality: There were a lot of us who got involved in the same-sex scene not because we were attracted to men, but we had 'daddy' issues and were acting out our broken relationships with our Dads. Becket, you may not relate to that, it may not match your experience, but it's true for many (including me) and should be said. Excellent segment this week (as usual); thank you, sir, and God bless. Amen.
Sounds like you are talking about Royal Family Kids Camp. It's a great program.
I'm just pausing the video, I think there really is something true about that, woodworking in high school is attractive to a lot of male students, something about it brings a sense of peace to a lot of men..... anyways, I have to finish watching....
Inspiring.
I hope you get to go hunting and hiking becket! It would be a really neat experience if Luke allowed you to join them.
I wish gun training was done more often for women but i like the hiking aspect. This ministry sounds really healing and peaceful.
I love this talk and ministry! God bless our little boys, and young men❤ Thank you for doing this, and showing them some things that are probably so foreign to them, but most importantly the love of Jesus🎉
❤prayers ❤ 🙏
Great Ministry! I think being in creation removes the wall's, quite literally and figuratively, that distract us. And it reminds us there is a God who is greater than all our earthly sorrows, worries and situations. We can look at everything He has created and still see the beauty and care of our loving Creator, even in this fallen world. This scripture sums it up well...When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him? ... O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth! - Psalm 8:3-4, 9 NASB95
I m like Beck , indoor, no bugs, no tents, no dirt lol
💞💞💞
Repent and believe the gospel. Everybody needs Jesus. Only Jesus can save lost sinners. Jesus wins and the devils lose be on Jesus's side.
Royal Family, Kids Camp!
For men to say they love something, in this case quail, and then blow the life out of it, does not make sense to me. I don’t get this whole men loving blood sports thing.
I also had to laugh when he appreciatively said: "the boy started pulling the birds apart".😂
Modern educationists would be shocked😮
But if it really helps the boys, this guy is right.
