SUMMARY:God's Creation\, God's Design Workshop
DESCRIPTION:We live in a world that is changing at a record pace.\nYou can watch the four sessions from this event here. \nPerspectives that would have been broadly unthinkable only a few years ago have become more mainstream in our time. Are biological sex and gender distinct from one another or are they the same? Can a person truly change his or her gender? What is happening in our culture related to these matters and how should followers of Jesus respond? This workshop is designed to bring education and clarity from a biblical perspective about the critical issues related to gender\, identity and sexuality. \nOn Saturday\, August 20\, several speakers will cover topics including: \n\nWhat is Gender Confusion & Why is it Happening?\nWhat is Transgender?\nUnderstanding the Social Impacts\nA Biblical Response – Truth & Love\nResponding to Those in Your Circles\nQ & A Panel Discussion\n\nSpeakers will include Walt Heyer\, Maria Kefler and Sharon Supp (bios below). On Sunday\, August 21\, Pastor Jim will interview Walt Heyer during our services. \nThe event is free to attend\, but registration is required. \nRegister here\nAbout the Speakers\nWALT HEYER identified as a transgender woman for eight years and now has a passion to help others who regret gender change. Walt travels extensively to share his story of redemption at conferences\, churches and universities. Walt has appeared on numerous radio and television shows in the U.S. and Canada. Walt’s articles have been published online and his many books are a welcome resource in understanding the issue. \n\nMARIA KEFLER is a co-founder of Advocates Protecting Children\, and (formerly) Partners for Ethical Care and the Arlington Parent Coalition (Virginia). An author\, speaker\, and teacher with a background in educational psychology\, Ms. Keffler has fought to support families and protect children from unethical activism and dangerous policies around sexuality and transgender ideology since 2018. \n\nSHARON SUPP serves as Senior Research Analyst at Alliance Defending Freedom with a focus on parental rights and advocacy strategy.
