Why Genesis Matters for a Biblical Worldview of Sexuality

We need to lovingly show that, regardless of feelings, the choice to embrace any sexual lifestyle other than God’s design for marriage is sin, and as with any sin, the only hope for deliverance is the redeeming work of God’s grace offered through his Son Jesus Christ.

She shows from both the Bible and science that the answer is a resounding no! Biology is clear that gender is not a social construct and that only two genders exist. Dr. Purdom shares that scientific research has failed to show any genetic or biological link to homosexuality and transgenderism. In fact, these are incompatible with both a biblical and an evolutionary worldview. Get real answers that you can share with friends and family. Lovingly show them that there is freedom from sin and there is hope in Jesus Christ.
