You’ve got questions about gender and sexuality. Big questions. Questions that aren’t easily answered.
Is gender binary or fluid?
What does the Bible say about transitioning?
How do I respond to people whose physical body doesn’t match their declared gender?
What does it mean to use the correct pronouns?
How can I share the Gospel with someone who is transgender?
This little book, geared toward youth and sold in packs of 20, gives you the answers you need to approach these questions from a godly, loving perspective.
This resource is available in small booklet format, for purchase in packs of 20 from Concordia Publishing House on cph.org.
This Bible study provides guidance and biblical testimony about how Christians should respond to gender and sexual identity issues.
