The Church’s Response to Transgenderism and Gender Identity

In this episode of Equipping You in Grace, Dave Jenkins gives a biblical response to transgenderism and gender identity, bringing clarity and hope from God’s Word.

As the world redefines truth and identity, the Church must stand firm on God’s design, rooted in Scripture and guided by grace.

Why a Biblical Response to Transgenderism Matters

Drawing from Scripture, theology, church history, and pastoral experience, Dave unpacks:

  • Why gender identity is a theological and pastoral issue
  • How the gospel speaks to our whole person—body, mind, and soul
  • How Christians and churches can hold the line with both truth and love
  • What faithful discipleship looks like in an age of expressive individualism
“God’s design is not only true — it’s good.”

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Bible say about transgenderism?

The Bible teaches that God created humanity as male and female (Genesis 1:27). This design is good, intentional, and not subject to personal redefinition. Gender is a part of God’s created order and reveals His glory.

How should Christians respond to gender identity confusion?

We must respond with truth and love. Christians are called to uphold God’s design for gender while showing compassion to those who are hurting. Truth without love is harsh; love without truth is hollow. The gospel offers both clarity and grace.

How can parents and pastors disciple others in this area?

Start with Scripture. Teach Genesis 1, Psalm 139, and Matthew 19. Model biblical manhood and womanhood. Speak with conviction, listen with compassion, and guide others to find their identity in Christ, not culture.
