Addressing “the moral case for ‘gender transitions’” in kids
God's design for our bodies is a topic that is often overlooked in today's society, especially when it comes to discussions about sexuality and gender. In a recent podcast episode, Dr. Kathy discussed the idea of allowing children to choose their sexuality or gender, highlighting the importance of understanding and honoring God's design for our bodies.
Dr. Kathy emphasized that God has intricately designed our bodies to grow and develop in a specific way. She expressed concern over the idea that children should be allowed to consent to puberty, as it goes against the natural process that God has put in place. She pointed out that God has already chosen our sexuality and gender, and it is not something that we should try to change or alter.
In the podcast, Andrea Long Chu's article was mentioned, where she argued for the rights of trans kids to undergo transition surgery. Chu suggested that children should have the freedom to change their bodies and that they should be able to consent to puberty blockers. However, Dr. Kathy disagreed with this perspective, stating it goes against God's design for our bodies.
We, as Christians, need to understand and respect God's design for our bodies. We are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image, and our bodies reflect His divine plan for us. By honoring and embracing God's design, we can live in alignment with His will and purpose for our lives.
God's design for our bodies is a sacred and beautiful gift we should cherish and protect. As parents, we teach our children the importance of honoring God's design and living under His plan. By instilling these values in our children, we can help them grow and mature in a way that celebrates who they are and who they are becoming in Christ.
