YouTube description

How do identities form in contemporary settings? How are identities formed in relation to our sexuality and experience of gender? This message engages historical, social, and linguistic changes that have influenced young people’s understanding of sexuality and gender. Rather than offer simple formulas, Christians need tools for caring, respectful, and effective engagement with youth who are navigating sexual and gender identity in contemporary culture.

Today, we welcome Dr. Mark Yarhouse, clinical psychologist, professor at Wheaton College, and follower of Jesus. Yarhouse has been known for listening deeply to LGBTQ+ people and their families, holding to historic Christian teaching while refusing to reduce anyone to a label, and helping churches and parents find language and practices that are both truthful and kind.
