NAME CHANGES & NEW PRONOUNS

NEW PODCAST

Recently a mom reached out to us for support. Here is a question that she asked:

My transgender daughter requested that we use only masculine pronouns when referring to her in conversation. We want to honor her, but we feel this is empowering a false identity. What is the appropriate response?

Grab your coffee as we discuss.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • There is an incredible amount of grief that comes with your child requesting this. We don’t minimize the heartache and the stress that this must be on you.

  • Do you have to be transgender to have gender dysphoria? The answer is NO.

  • What can you do to come to a place of respect without partnering with deception?

  • As a parent, how can you walk in humility and take responsibility for what you can so that you can love your child well?

  • Jesus is not in heaven saying, “What have they come up with now? This is an issue that I have no idea how to address!” No—broken sexuality has been a part of the history of humanity, and Jesus can help us learn how to navigate these crucial issues.
