Today's interview deals with the topic of transgenderism and sexual sin and is intended for a mature audience.

Listener discretion is advised.

Hi, my name is Silas Firth. I live in Homer, Alaska, and I own a video marketing and production company.

I enjoy listening to Compelled because these are

everyday stories of real people. They're not necessarily focused on celebrities. These are stories

of how God is working in our lives today, and that's encouraging and uplifting. So, enjoy

today's episode. I remember standing in a group of guys one day at this new job I had where I was only known as male

and they had no concept that I was a girl and yet I knew internally that I was not one of them.

I remember realizing that the devil had tricked me.

I'm Paul Hastings and you're listening to Compelled, a seasonal podcast with unique

stories from the kingdom of God told by the people compelled to live for him.

Last week, we heard a special behind-the-scenes episode with two-time NFL Super Bowl champion

Bruce Collie.

Bruce had everything that the world could offer. Money, women, drugs, and even two Super Bowl rings.

But although he was on top of the world in his own eyes, he was falling apart on the inside.

You can hear that story and more at compelledpodcast.com.

Today, our guests are Laura and Francine Perry. For years, Laura rejected God

and hated her own body. She thought that she would find answers by transgendering herself into a

man. But after living as a transgender man for almost 10 years, she realized that the creator of

the universe had a far greater plan for her life.

Her mother, Francine, joins us as well to share her perspective throughout Laura's journey.

Laura and Francine's story is coming up right after a word from our sponsors.
