The Body God Gives (With Robert S. Smith)

What is a biblical response to transgender theory? What is the relationship between sex and gender? How can Christians best navigate our cultural moment with biblical conviction and compassion? In our discussion, Dr. Smith argues that God's design is for a person's gender to be rooted in his or her biological sex, which is the body God gives. Smith offers a helpful and pastoral critique of transgender theory and talks about where this debate may be headed. Dr. Robert S. Smith is an Australian ordained minister in the Anglican church and a writer in theology, ethics, and music ministry. He formerly taught at Sydney Missionary & Bible College. He is the award-winning author of The Body God Gives: A Biblical Response to Transgender Theory . ========== Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University , which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.
