Emerging Gender Identities offers a measured Christian response to gender identity, transgender experiences, and the diverse gender identities that are being embraced by an increasing number of adolescents. "A much-needed book. Mark and Julia have spent countless hours listening to and loving the very people they're writing about.

Produktbeschreibung
Emerging Gender Identities offers a measured Christian response to gender identity, transgender experiences, and the diverse gender identities that are being embraced by an increasing number of adolescents. "A much-needed book. Mark and Julia have spent countless hours listening to and loving the very people they're writing about. They have helped us see that this topic is not just about issues; it's about people." --Preston Sprinkle, author of Embodied: Transgender Identities, the Church, and What the Bible Has to Say "This book is a page-turner. Why? It takes the important topic of gender identities and treats it with courage, truthfulness, and respect. Yarhouse and Sadusky challenge men and women of faith who work with children, young adults, and others who are experiencing gender identity issues to seriously grapple with the complexities so that they will be known as people who tackle difficult problems in such a way that the people of God will feel beloved." --Shirley V. Hoogstra, president, Council for Christian Colleges & Universities "This book will be a gift to pastors, youth pastors, parents, and friends of transgender and gender expansive individuals. My only disappointment is that I've only read the book once, so far!" --Jenell Paris, Messiah College "This book is a treasure that I have been awaiting for years. It is a faithful guide for anyone who wants to navigate the tangled forest of emerging gender identities and find there the rays of sunshine that help us to see with the eyes of Christ." --Fr. Boniface Hicks, OSB, Institute for Ministry Formation, Saint Vincent Seminary "A welcome resource and a much-needed tool for ministering to today's youth. I wish every youth pastor, children's pastor, senior pastor, student-ministry volunteer, and parent could read this book." --Caleb Kaltenbach, pastor and author of Messy Grace "We are faced with a dizzying ongoing evolution in cultural understanding of and recommended responses to a kaleidoscope of emerging gender identities. This book offers richly informed and thoughtful Christian analysis of these phenomena, along with compassionate and challenging recommendations for ministry." --Stanton L. Jones, Wheaton College (emeritus); coauthor of the God's Design for Sex family sex-education book series "Yarhouse and Sadusky are unafraid of exploring the overlap of Christianity, psychology, and cultures, and equally unafraid of reaching out in peace. I admire such a version of Christianity. I have read every page of this book. I disagree with the authors' concept of suffering, but that is a minor point. I found myself nodding my head in agreement over and over. I endorse this book for ministers, parents, and gender-exploring youth." --Caryn LeMur, a male-to-female transsexual and a follower of the words and life of Jesus
