What does it mean to stand firm in biblical sexuality and identity in a confused culture? In this episode of Equipping You in Grace, Dave Jenkins launches our Rooted & Resolved series by examining Genesis 1:27 and offering gospel-centered clarity on gender, courage, and the role of the Church in today’s cultural moment.
Male and Female, He Created Them | Rooted & Resolved
In this episode of Equipping You in Grace, part of our June cornerstone series Rooted & Resolved: Standing on Biblical Truth in a Confused Age, Dave Jenkins explores what it means to stand for biblical sexuality and identity in a culture of compromise. We reflect on the bold stand of collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines, who spoke truth in a time when clarity is costly.
What does it look like for Christians to stand with courage, compassion, and conviction? How do we respond when the church grows silent on vital issues? This episode offers pastoral encouragement and gospel-centered clarity rooted in Genesis 1:27—“Male and female He created them.”
