Synopsis

Helps parents to teach young children what the Bible says about sexuality proactively and positively in a culture with contrasting ideas and values.  As Christian parents, we long to equip our kids as they venture out into a culture where LGBT is affirmed and celebrated. We want them to know what God says, and to love what God says. But, it’s hard to know where to start. That's where this book can help Author Rachel Gilson helps you to teach your children proactively and positively about God’s beautiful design for human sexuality, gender, and relationships. This book will help you to provide your children with a Christian framework for sexual ethics, rather than letting the culture lay the foundations of their worldview in this area.  Rachel writes with understanding and clarity to help fellow parents engage with the wider LGBT narrative with faith rather than fear. Since she herself experiences same-sex attraction but has chosen to follow the Bible's teaching, she has put much thought into this topic. She reassures us that Jesus gives us everything we need to be faithful disciples in a fallen world, and that God works out his perfect purposes despite human sin. She also shares her wisdom on how to respond with grace and truth to people with different beliefs in this area.  This book is ideal for preschool and elementary-school children.

But honestly it provides some points that we all need to think through for ourselves, such as is Jesus and......more

Goodreads review by Kenny on June 29, 2025

The book is a very useful tool for parents raising their kids in a Christian home, yet part of a world that affirms LGBT+ culture, especially during Pride month. The book, written by an author well familiar with same sex attraction, strikes the balance well with her advice on how to hold true to unc......more
