Summary
With the rise of the transgender movement and the damage it’s doing to young people on a huge scale, the Church has a vital role to play in speaking the truth and loving the victims of this cultural confusion. Carrie Abbott, founder and president of the Legacy Institute, has faithfully followed the Lord’s leading to educate Christians on God’s design for gender, sexuality, and relationships so they can flourish and help others do the same. Listen in as she shares about the beauty of embracing God’s design for gender, the critical role the Church plays in the fight against transgender ideology, and the importance of standing firm in the truth when it’s tempting to compromise in the name of “love.”

Our free reading guide, “The Kingdom of God is at Hand,” includes reflection questions for each play, as well as prayers to help you embrace the gift of repentance and “make straight the way of the Lord” in your heart this Lenten season.

If you’ve listened for a while, you’ve probably heard me talk about the Colson Fellows program and what a transformational experience it has been in my life and the lives of many fellow believers. The Colson Fellows program was designed for men and women with full, busy lives. The program combines theological, spiritual, and worldview formation through a carefully curated combination of readings, daily devotions, live webinars, and monthly meetings with your peers. Interesting but wondering if you have the time or what it takes to complete the program? I assure you, it’s well worth your investment and has been completed by many women in all stages and seasons of life. Interested in learning more? You can explore the program and submit an application at colsonfellows.org.
