In today’s episode, Becket chats with Dr. Corey Miller, the president and CEO of Ratio Christi.
Ratio Christi wants to keep students strong in their faith so they can withstand the challenges they face as they go out into the world. We do this in three ways.
Arm Students With Reasons to Follow Christ
We bring faith and logic together to give students thought-out reasons for following Jesus Christ. Our goal is to help Christians work through their doubts, and ultimately share Christ with their peers.
Equip Professors with Tools to Share Their Faith
With the right encouragement, resources, and platform, professors can share their own faith with the students around them and be a light within their spheres of influence. We help provide these tools.
Plant University Clubs Nationwide and Around the World
University students are questioning purpose, faith, and identity. Our nationwide clubs provide a safe place to ask apologetics questions (and give leaders resources to tackle them with confidence).

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.

I think William Lane Craig believes in old Earth, instead of creationism. I don't think he is good to use. Other than that I praise what this guest is doing.
What do you spy out the freedom Abraham has in Christ Jesus to sacrifice his son Isaac?
Yes!!!
So hopeful After watching this shocking example of what is going on in universities, ua-cam.com/video/61Wx-903AdU/v-deo.html
"if you want to change the world, change the universities" best concept ever!
God created everyone with a unique orientation. As unique as your God-Given fingerprints. No Two are the same. One of the letters is for you. You are included. No exceptions. Zero excuses.
Unfortunately the left realized that long ago
@@MichaelMcDonald-my2npyes; two unique orientations: male and female, God WONT Change and His words neither
The Marxists knew it
Indeed they did, and do. It's amazing how quickly college students can be swayed these days. They lack foundation. On the other hand, doesn't take rocket science to figure out there is male and female only? Yes, with those very few genetic factors ~
I’m So Glad I Listened to this today!!! This is the organization we (moms) have been praying for!! This is it…What our lost boys (and girls) need so desperately!!
This is INCREDIBLE! Such an important work that you are doing! Praise God! ❤️
Thank you Lord for truth and You are the Truth Lord.
Is there a link to all the booklets he was talking about? @becketcook
How do you come up with such awesome guests every week!!! I never miss watching every Thursday.
Every parent that is thinking of sending their kids to college needs to hear this video!!
Yes. Parents have to be very careful, or they will find that they have paid their hard earned money, and lots of it, to America hating and God hating atheist Marxist universities to turn their sweet children into America hating, God hating, atheist, Marxist revolutionaries, or anarchists. And the kids will hate you too and not talk to you for years. And YOU paid for it.- - - - Happens every day now.
I had a relative who was a body guard of Joseph Smith too. How funny. Jesus found me when I was 35 and had been seeking my whole life. Praise Jesus for what He has done for all of us!
Becket, Thursday is my favorite day of the week! Corey Miller was an awesome guest and my faith is being renewed for the future of university education. Praying that his organization continues to experience victories in the courts.
Thank you! God Bless
Very true and encouraging. God's heart has always been for the Generations. Let us unite in praying for the salvation and discilpeship of our children all over the world. ❤ From Africa
God Bless
This speaker was fascinating,entertaining and truth based! I could’ve kept listening to his great and helpful stories for hours!
Thank you for doing this show Becket. I’m forwarding it to some trusted church leaders
♥️✝️💥♥️✝️💥♥️✝️
Amen! God Bless
In the early 50’s my dad and men that he worked with called UCLA the “little red schoolhouse” because they knew they were teaching socialism, Marxism etc.
Oh wow. It's hard to believe that it's been going on for so long. McCarthy wasn't as paranoid as was once thought, I guess.
That’s just when they started. The planning and infiltration has been going on far longer than the 60s.

Most Christians have nothing to worry about, though, since they don't believe in higher education anyway (otherwise they would know what a bunch of bollocks this and other conspiracy theories are).
@@Usernameblahblahnblah Yeah. It's alarming going back and seeing just how long they've been brainwashing us. At least back then it was more subtle. Now that it's accepted by the mainstream, they don't have to hide anymore.
Before taking back the professors, you have to take back the college administrations. The university president and board sets the rules about what can and can't be taught on campus. Look at what happened to Jordan Peterson.....
This was a shocker to see. I'm a missionary with Ratio Christi!!!
Glad to see you talking to Corey! He's great
Stopped at 20:52 just to write this comment:
I come from a family full of teachers, from Christian to Atheist.
And I'm very sad to report this is not at all strange - this absolutely baffling mobbing of being hauled into court if you don't "go along with the narrative" and especially if you are Christian, REGARDLESS of whether you ever mention that on campus or not! It's real. And it's getting worse. But the reality, if you stand back for a moment is this: the current most headstrong political push these days (wokeism) have their sacred holy place in the universities and on down to kindergarten. So, they go ballistic on you if you are a true Christian there -- again: spoken or never spoken.
Thank God for professors and pastors that will not bow their knees to our woke culture and woke churches preaching the doctrines of demons all in the name of tolerance! Thanks Becket! Love your shows 🙏❤️🩹🤲
Thank you! God Bless
This is the most valuable interview you’ve ever produced, Becket! You and Corey Miller should go on tour and speak at schools and universities! Please have more episodes with Mr Miller 🙏
Repent and believe the gospel. Everybody needs Jesus. Only Jesus can save lost sinners. Jesus wins and the devil loses be on Jesus's side.
That's amazing! Corey Miller was one of my teachers at Ecola Bible College in Cannon Beach Oregon. He taught Romans, so good!
This was so good, informative, I really appreciate it. You always get THE BEST GUESTS, Becket!!! THANK YOU!!! XOXO
Becket would enjoy talking to our fearless Oxford Professor John Lennox, wonderful witness for the Lord for decades after he was threatened with losing his career for talking about God. I think he's around 80 now but I believe he still does interviews.
Yes!!! Blessings and love from Canada!
What a pleasant surprise to see this interview. Jane at RC just gave me one of his books to read. I love seeing such intelligent intellects fighting the good fight. I need to pray more for this ministry. Thank you to both.
God Bless
This is such a great interview. So many churches have ignored culture for decades and decades and now New Age (occult) is entering evangelical churches and they don't even realize it.
Fantastic guest! Trying to tell friends how important campus ministry is ! Never heard of him before . Thank you!!
Thank you! God Bless
My best friend and her husband are two of the most sincere and committed Christians I know, yet they lost their formerly Jesus-loving daughter to university social justice and atheism. 😢
I’m seeing and hearing this a lot from Christian families. I’m in Massachusetts and my second oldest is currently a junior in high school. She wants to go to a university here; no further than New England to be closer to home. I’m trying to gently steer her to Christian universities, preferably the one I graduated from 30 years ago. She hasn’t said no but is not yet 100% on board. We already have the experience of our oldest daughter living in a way that is not Christlike. She’s a good kid, about to graduate from nursing school from one of our state universities, but has broken our hearts with her personal decisions.
The Prodigals are coming home. God has got this!
As a child I went to Hume Lake for summer camp, our church was a Missionary Church in Van Nuys CA. I have the best memories of my summers there, and it's where I first learned about the second coming of Christ and the song, "How Great Thou Art " among many other things.
How encouraging this is. May God give us time to turn things around by His wisdom and power.
Wow, I live near Purdue University and have read some of Corey’s publications but had no idea of all the work he is doing. Such an important ministry he is part of. Thanks so much for having him on your show.
Excellent show. I just encouraged my daughter to consider checking out Ratio Christi at UCSD.
God bless you Becket! You are a huge voice for Jesus! I am in Losangeles for Christmas,My Daughter and 3 of my 9 grandkids live here! I tell everyone to watch your show!you are a wonderful servant of Christ! Merry Christmas Becket !
Merry Christmas, God Bless!
GET FEDERAL FUNDING OUT OF EDUCATION!!!
My children are in universities in Australia--in science and medicine courses--and are forced to take core classes in social/sexualty diversity. It's blatant propaganda.
Amen to reclaiming college campuses for Christ!🎚️🩶
Amen! God Bless
Hey Becket, I wanted to let you know that your "Plato's Cave" video can only be accessed through the "becket cook show playlist" on your channel. Hope this helps and have a good day.
"what made the West best is Christianity" so true
The is a six part series on the history of the west on line tracing the story from the fall of Rome
Praise the living God for this man and ministry. This gives me hope for the indoctrination mills again. God bless, and save the multitudes in our college (and all school) campuses.
God Bless
Great interview. Apologetics, Apologetics, Apologetics!
Ratio Christi is how I met my husband! For that reason and many more, I am very grateful for the organization.
The wicked flee though no one pursues but the righteous are as bold as lions.
Amen! We must press in!!!
once again, another incredible discussion, 13:04, 22:45, 34:30, never realized we need to reach professors too
How can I “like” ☑️ this episode more ? Reach those professors and the universities - Christ did not die for some - but for all.
Hi Beckett, please refer to the LDS church by it's full and correct name: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. This restoration of the original church of Jesus Christ is no longer called by its nickname "Mormon." Thanks in advance! Merry Christmas!
So thrilled whenever I discover you've dropped another video, Becket! (Only discovered your channel a couple months ago. Such a gift!)
I haven't even listened to this one yet but already know it's going to be outstanding. Such a timely and important topic. Thank you both!!
Thank you!! God Bless
Beckett, I’m so thankful for your exemplary stand for Christ and your inspiring story and all your hard work. Many great points are made in this video, pertaining to the main topic as defined by the title. However, it’s important to clarify, that neither “Mormon” nor “Mormonism” are (or ever have been) actual names of the church referenced early on in this video. The correct name is: The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter Day Saints. From the actual title there should be no confusion as to whether it is a Christian church. Many Christian churches differ in their understanding of the Bible, but referring to them as anything but Christian is uncommon. For example, you still 6:24 refer to traditionally Christian churches that have chosen the unbiblical stance of being “gay affirming” as being Christian.
In any case, even if there are points of disagreement, it is my hope that the commonly held belief that Jesus Christ is the only true and living Savior of the world is the point from which all conversations flow. Much love and God bless!
Dear Dr. Miller: I am AMAZED at your foot-work (boots) and foot-notes (books) for Christ! My prayers are being answered through your platform!!! Amen! Alleluia!
Beckett, You've found a way to be successful. Congratulations!
Cognitive learning- “wise as serpents and harmless as doves “. Colossians chapter 1 remains true on the preeminent Christ!!!
I agree the campus needs to be the focus
Dang Beckett knows everyone. 🤭 very good interview!
Meat is typically sold by weight, not package size. When you see a package, the weight is usually mentioned on the label. This helps ensure you're aware of the quantity you're purchasing, as package sizes can vary."
CRU for professors & staff in the 90s. I attended as an adjunct professor. Only the tenured professors dared teach contrary to status quo. We would pray for each other, especially during those "rebel" lectures.
There were very few of us. The best I could do, as an adjunct, was teach critical thinking.
Great interview! Very informative… again! Keep up the Amazing work Señor Beckett. Blessings bro👍🏽
Thank you! God Bless
Okay you just went ahead of Eric Metaxas in great guests/interviews.....don't tell Eric😊
Ooh I'm telling!! 😂
:)
This guy just may have the most important ministry in America right now.
What a great interview with Corey Miller! This is organization is so desperately needed on college campuses now. After seeing colleges and universities having pro Hamas rallies has really shocked me to the core. This country is definitely not grandma’s America anymore.
Love this interview! I learned so much, and I want to listen again to get all the nuggets of wisdom/knowledge. As a mom of 5 sons, I want to protect them from this harmful stuff. I see the alarming ideas flowing out of universities - too many young people are deceived! - and into culture and politics. I see how what people hear & learn during their college years affects the trajectory of their life and worldview.
How can this program be expanded in Africa and the rest of the world because the same is happening here in our Universities that were started by Religious Institutions
This is so edifying - Becket I didn’t really understand the political bits even on a second listen - but interestingly Hitler targeted the philosophers and professors and Corey Miller explains why - I’ll try to understand the political stuff on the 3rd listen 😊
Shalom Blessings in Jesus ✝️🇮🇱
As someone who works in higher ed, this was very timely. Thank you!
As an OSU alum and parent of a current Buckeye, I’m glad you are there.
What minute did they talk abt OSU? I missed it!
Sounds like a great ministry.
Beckett are you losing weight? Are you eating well?
Do you ever name schools ....hopefully Christian...to which you would send your kids?
Marxism ties back to Gnosticism. An enduring heresy threatens Christianity since day 1. Check out James Lindsey’s analysis for detailed explanations.
My son, Luke Campbell, showed a Chinese foreign exchange student how Christ died for his sins at a garden on the Purdue campus. Luke is an evangelist and was working at the time nearby. He would often go to the Purdue campus and witness to students.
It was dark after the student accepted Christ. He asked Luke what he needs to do now and Luke told him he should be baptized. I’m not sure if it was the student that insisted upon being baptized right away, or Luke, but he baptized him in the fountain that I believe is located on the other side of the building. It’s one of my favorite stories of how Luke has shown the way to the lost.
How shall they hear if we don’t tell them?
By the way, I think my son would make great guest - just telling stories of witnessing at Arab fest, Pride Day in Indy, a young man that threw hot coffee on him, witnessing outside near a concert venue.
Very grateful for the work being done in universities. I don’t know about The US Navigators, but I worry about the Canadian Navigators that seem to have gone in the direction of soft gospel and authors being used instead of scripture.
Our university is super woke, but I know 3 of the professors (science department) and they're all christians. Typically, people in the more rigorous fields are 'thinking' people
I guess some good news, finally! Haven't heard from you lately Beckett.
I must admit that as a Christian grandma I feel very intimidated by apologetics. I'm grateful for the ones who can lead this charge into the colleges and universities! God bless you! ❤
God Bless
What a beautiful story of the grace of God upon our lives! Thank you Becket for being a faithful servant of Jesus Christ!
Great podcast. thank you Professor Miller for your work. Thank you Becket. Happy Christmas blessings
Thank you! God Bless
Jesus change the world by starting at the bottom going up. He went to the poor uneducated outcast of his time. I think God‘s ways are the best. The world hasn’t changed the educated, wealthy and powerful for the most part don’t see their need for Jesus. you have to ask yourself? Did Jesus go about it all the wrong way without starting with the people at the top.?
Wow, this is such important work! Great conversation.
Thanks for the interview. I will be buying and passing out the materials as an older student since my job is paying for my masters degree.
Hi Becket, I'd love your take on the pope releasing that Vatican document allowing for blessings for same sex and irregular couples. The Anglican church has released a similar allowance around the same time this December. I'm pretty sure you would see the handwriting on the wall w/ this.
Thankfully, there are plenty of bishops and priests rejecting it. We need to stick with the Truth and be in the world not of the world. It's a sad time with a very bad pope. What affects Catholics through the pope affects the world as well. Thankfully, there are many fighting and rejecting his scandal. There was absolutely no need for that to be written. It just caused more confusion and more division by making people think it's ok now that the pope has this in writing. He is fallible in this and can't be followed on this. I'll stay with the RCC, despite him, and live out the Catechism and not turn from God and His great design for us.
Love your work, Becket! You and your team are in my prayers.
Thank you! God Bless
Truly and inspiring and empowering show. Unless you're in the trenches and experiencing what is going on with their gruesome power struggle ! probably won't understand why it is so vital that all Christians unite. We have a blessed leader in Becket Cook.
God Bless
Very informative. Bless the Lord for these brave warriors. Thank you Becket.
Hi, l have a co-worker who’s great great great great great grandfather was a co-founder of The Mormon Tabernacle. I have no idea how to reach her for Christ other than pray & maybe invite her to church.🙏🏽
Breaking through the darkness. Continue speaking truth. ❤🙏
Terrific! I had never heard of Ratio Christi. Will be praying about supporting them financially and potentially in a volunteer capacity. Thank you so much!!
Only a minute in and so impressed with Dr. Miller’s resume!!!
Thank You so much for Informing Us of this topic!!
👍👍👍🏆⭐
And still you can't get a Christian to admit they push their religion.
This is very encouraging! ❤🎉 praise God!
Unbelievable 🙀🙀🙀🫣🙀
Excellent post.. thank u
God Bless
I hear higher moral values are taken over universities 😮 saying “Christians” just adds to the mindset it’s a religion 🙄 when I’ve learned Jesus didn’t come to start a new religion, he came to usher in the kingdom❤ The Kingdom is at hand!
Christianity is a religion. A religion is a set of beliefs, and practices that are based on those beliefs.
When you say that Christianity is not a religion, it opens the door to people defining Christianity as they see fit. That's why we see so many people saying they are not religious, they are spiritual. But that usually means they don't want to attend church or subscribe to any structures put in place by Jesus
@@nerychristian It’s the religious leaders Jesus had his confrontations with and they are the ones who wanted him out of the picture! He didn’t come to start a religion he came to usher in the kingdom of God and facilitate spiritual transformation❤️🩹❤️ renewing of the mind Romans 12:2.
Constantine the Great defined it as a religion!
@@bethbatchelder932 Look up the word Religion in the dictionary. True. The main reason why Jesus came to the Earth was to fulfill the Law and become the sacrifice for the sins of the world. But he also came to correct the Jews of the time, and to show them the correct interpretation of the law, and the correct way to pray and observe the law. He also established new practices that we believers are to observe. Such as the observance of the Lords Supper, the preaching of the Gospel, church structure, etc
So impressive, gives me hope! Thank you both!
Great guest, Becket!! ❤
Glad to hear the October 7 massacre mentioned at last in the Becket Cook Show!
Wow Becket....What a fantastic interview. My granddaughter is now a college freshman and i am so concerned about the ideas she'll be exposed to. ✝️🙏🙏🙏
Let’s pray that she’ll remain ignorant and uneducated!
As a Purdue alumn, this guy makes me proud (MSCE '79). I want to find out more.
God works in a miracle way of using his Godly Christian gift to use him for the Glory of God. 🙏❤️🌹🥰
Fault Lines by Voddie Baucham- great book!!!
Yes 🙌 . Thank you for talking about this serious issue . Merry Christmas Becket ❤️🙏.
God Bless
This was so good! And so timely as I'm thinking about my oldest going to college in a few yrs
Becket, wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a very blessed prosperous New Year 2024.
Thank you! God Bless
