    The Lies You Hear About Transgender

    July 19, 2022 / 0 Comments

    I am deeply concerned about how the cultural narrative about transgender keeps ratcheting up. I believe this is a massive display of spiritual warfare, where the enemy of our souls is screaming lies about gender and identity—especially to teens and younger and younger children. Jesus warned us that the devil’s agenda is to “steal, kill and destroy” (John 10:10), and this deception about gender is, I believe, one of the most wicked and insidious deceptions he’s ever come up with. Consider some of the lies that have become commonplace: “People can be born into the wrong body.” This represents a thinking disorder, not a biological problem. There is no such…

    “I am not my body!”  Compassion, peace and hope when we feel alienated from our bodies

    July 1, 2019 / Comments Off on “I am not my body!”  Compassion, peace and hope when we feel alienated from our bodies

    May God deepen our compassion for those who live in this tension and bring us wholeness and peace Whether because of aging, illness, gender dysphoria, injury, anorexia, or even weight gain, many of us feel that who we are on the outside is not who we really are on the inside.   When I first encountered the transgender community rallying cry, “I am not my body,” I was shocked. “I am not my body” had been my heart cry for years.   I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at age 29.   I could empathize with the trans who felt like the male on the inside didn’t really align with…
