Gender identity is one of the most complex and emotionally charged topics in the Church today and one of the most important to address with as much compassion as biblical intelligence.
With Embodied, Dr. Preston Sprinkle helps us understand and engage in the conversation surrounding transgender identities. Drawing on Scripture, personal stories, and in-depth research, Sprinkle explores, for example:
- Why are more and more teens questioning their gender?
- What does it mean to be transgender, non-binary, or genderqueer?
- What are the moral issues surrounding medical interventions like sex-reassignment surgery?
- Where do stereotypes about men and women come from: culture or the Bible?
- In practice, which pronouns should be used with transgender people? And what about gender-neutral restrooms?
- What is the connection between transgender experiences and being created in the image of God as male and female?
Written for Christian leaders, church ministers, and parents, Embodied equips you to speak with as much grace as truth about the difficult questions surrounding transgender issues.
