Gender identity isn't something we've been brave enough to tackle on our podcast -- until now.

Join Tom, Ryan, and Jacob as we welcome Dr. Preston Sprinkle to the show to talk about his new book, Embodied: Transgender Identities, the Church, and What the Bible Has to Say. We talk about the challenge and hospitality of using people's pronouns, the layered concept of what some would say it means to be "truly trans*," the spectrum of gender dysphoria, masculine and feminine stereotypes, intersex people, and how the Church can do better.

It's our first episode of 2021, and we're so glad to be back! We hope this special guest episode is worth the wait of our long winter break while we revamped our website.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

We're officially kicking off our new podcast schedule on our new podcast network with the release of this episode!
