God's Design for How Gender, Sex and the Human Body Relate

What is gender? What is sex? What is a human? What is a woman? What is a man? What is gender dysphoria? What is transgenderism?

A special lecture by guest speaker Dr. Gerry Breshears presenting a Biblical perspective on mistakes often made with gender stereotypes that are exclusively binary and divorced from sex, as well as frameworks for understanding gender dysphoria. Be reminded how Christians are called to treat others working through these complex issues with mercy, grace, love, healing, and forgiveness – not judgment and condemnation.
