Today I'm excited—not because of the topic, because it's a really difficult topic on sexuality and gender—but Dannah Gresh, I've just gotten to know her from a distance through podcasts and Revive Our Hearts and reading one of her books as well. But I do know that she has got a lot to say on this issue. So Dannah, thank you so much for being here. I really appreciate it.Dannah: Oh, I am so honored and delighted. Thank you for having me.Kerry: So before we get started, let me just pray for us and we'll let God guide this conversation.Father in Heaven, thank you. Thank you for today. Thank you for Zoom. Thank you that we can have a conversation and we can share it with many, many people. We thank you that you are sovereign, that you're the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and we can rest in that no matter what's going on around us. And there's a lot of mess going on around us, but we can have our hope in Jesus.We just thank you for Jesus and the bond that we have in Him through the blood that He shed for us. I thank you for Dannah being here. I pray that the things that you want said will be spoken through this conversation, that you will be glorified, and that the ones that are listening, you will just really touch their hearts and show them what types of practical steps or spending more time in the Word—whatever you want them to do—and just to be led by the Holy Spirit. We pray all these things in Jesus' powerful name, amen.Dannah: Amen.About Pure Freedom Ministries and PartnershipKerry: Okay, for those of you that don't know, Dannah has Pure Freedom Ministries and this has two parts: True Girl and Born to Be Brave. By the time y'all listen to this, you probably already heard one of my kickoffs because we do one on Sunday night before the whole week and I'll explain it.But they are our organization that we are supporting through this Summit. So we'll take the profits that we make on anyone that upgrades from free to VIP. If you upgrade to VIP, 5% of our profits will go to this organization. And then some of our speakers—you've probably heard about the ones that have chosen to—if they decide to donate 5% of their commissions, then I will match that 5% as well.So hopefully, you know, that will be just a little way that y'all can support what Dannah and her team are doing. So I just want to make sure everyone understands that before we get going.Dannah: What a blessing. Thank you so much.Dannah's Story: From Teenager to Ministry LeaderKerry: Well, let's before we start this topic, can you just tell people a little bit about yourself?Dannah: Sure. Well, I love Jesus first and foremost, and He is the best part of everything about my life. I came to know Him when I was a really little girl through Child Evangelism Fellowship five-day clubs. I just love Child Evangelism Fellowship to this day because I remember that moment when I surrendered my heart and my life to Jesus. So precious.But fast forward—at the age of 15, I was a teacher for Child Evangelism Fellowship. I was teaching Sunday school in my church to three-year-olds, and I loved the Lord like crazy. But I was in a Christian dating relationship and was blindsided by sexual temptation.I just thought that was not possible in my life because I loved the Lord so much. And it became this great shame and this great heartache of my life until I was about 26. I just really understood that even though it had been so long since I'd experienced that sin and chosen that sin, I hadn't really received the redemption and the freedom that Christ died to give me.When I did, my life changed. And I had to get out my megaphone—my proverbial megaphone—and tell teenage girls. And then as I was doing that, ministry just kind of exploded.I was praying, "Lord, let me graduate to college girls and adult women." And the Lord said, "What about my little women? What about my 10-year-olds and what about my 9-year-olds and what about my 8-year-olds?"I was like, "Lord, that's really great. Somebody needs to do children's ministry, but what about me graduating from high school girls to the older women?" And He was persistent. The Lord just kept opening doors.Before we knew it, we really are one of the largest ministries that takes biblical truth to 8 to 12-year-old girls. And now we have boys—we just added them in the last few years—through live events, box subscriptions, Bible studies, online Bible studies, at-home Bible studies with mom. We want to put mom in the driver's seat. We believe that's what God's Word says—that mom and dad belong in the driver's seat of a child's moral development.Now we fast forward to this year. We live in a time and a day and age when the government and a lot of different political entities believe that parents aren't equipped to make moral decisions about their children. Well, we still believe they are.And now I understand why the Lord has put us in this critical position. One of the things we've done really well through the years is take whatever the difficult issues of the day are—when we started, that was AIDS—and we look at it through a biblical lens.Today, that biblical lens that we look through, we're looking at the issue mostly of gender and identity. And when you think about how do we talk to an 8-year-old about that biblically without robbing them of their innocence, and also just the depression and anxiety these kids are at the tip of the spear...Teens have long been at the tip of the spear, but the enemy has moved the line backward. And now it's those 8 to 12-year-olds that really are having to grapple with things that their little hearts and minds aren't ready for. But we know how to do that in a way that's safe and biblical and most importantly keeps mom and dad in the driver's seat.The Trends We're Seeing in Gender IdentityKerry: That is so good. And I know I'm on y'all's True Girl mailing list, and so they have things and I have downloaded a few things just to find out exactly what they are. I'm giving my daughter some of y'all's books as well. I think it's the Lies Young Girls Believe, something like that. I'm not quite sure what it was.But I do have to tell you, all of a sudden I have one more connection with you because I grew up with Child Evangelism Fellowship and I became a believer at a Good News Club. I started, went to their CEF training as a teenager, and then we did the five-day clubs in Houston. So I was like, oh wow, that's so interesting. Small world.Dannah: They are a fruitful ministry. Look at us—we're passing, we're the fruit, we're passing on fruit. We're the fruit of their fruit.Kerry: My parents, they're in their 70s and 80s, and a while back they would lead Good News Clubs in the public school for like five years. They're still going on with it and all. So I love it. It does work.So okay, so we are in a just a strange time. And if you had asked us 30 years ago, we'd be going, "No way, we wouldn't be dealing with these issues." So what kind of trends are you seeing right now when it comes to gender identity and sexuality?Dannah: Well, you know, I would say heterosexual is definitely not in style. And what we see is a lot of teens claiming to be pansexual, where they're just willing to erase anything that has a baseline of truth to it and embrace everything. Basically, is what pansexuality is.A lot of teens in terms of gender are saying they're non-binary. That's just what's in style right now. And you might say, "Well, but there really is a problem. There are some kids that definitely struggle with gender dysphoria."Absolutely, that's true. Historically, we've known for decades that children—a very, very small percentage of them—are born with things like Klinefelter syndrome, fragile X syndrome. These are syndromes like Down syndrome where there are chromosomal abnormalities in that child's body.And the parents and the physicians have to work together to decide, how are we going to raise this child? Most cases, they can take a blood test and they can determine this child is clearly male or clearly female. But we have some issues that we're going to have to deal with because of these syndromes.But in most cases, they can really figure out what's happening there. And so that's the good news. But I think it's an important thing for us that we have to be compassionate because for some people that you meet on the street that you're not quite sure—are they male or female?—that's not a choice. It was something that they were born with. That's very difficult and painful. So we have to be careful.But on the other end of the spectrum, what we're seeing right now is—well, let me explain it this way. In about the year 2011, there was a shift from transgenderism being predominantly a male problem to now, it is today predominantly female. You see more teenage females transitioning than males.So the intellectually honest sociologists will say, "What happened to make that really dramatic shift happen?"And I think probably the person that's been bravest about it is a woman named Abigail Shrier. She's a journalist, not a believer as far as I know, conservative though, and yet very intellectually honest. Some parents kept writing to her and saying, "We need somebody to research this."And she brought together some of the bravest sociologists, some of the bravest intellectually honest ones. And what they found was clusters of girls transitioning. So in other words, a school district or a school or a city was seeing a lot of girls transitioning, and there were pops of this all over the United States.Now if this were a more intellectually honest occurrence, you would have seen it happening more evenly over the culture. But that's not the case. What's happening is cluster contagion. And that's what we're calling it now, which basically is peer pressure causing girls to say, "I don't feel comfortable in my body."Now let me remind you, there aren't very many of us that felt super comfortable in our body in seventh grade. But we weren't having somebody sit there next to us and telling us that might be because you're not really a girl.So I guess what we're seeing is a lot of confusion. Majority of what we're seeing is mass confusion that we need to prepare our children for and that we need to speak into truthfully. But we can't forget the compassion because there's a sliver of people struggling right now where this really is a deeply painful thing and not something that they chose.Why This Topic Is Critical Right NowKerry: That is something. So I mean, to me it seems pretty obvious, but why do you think this topic is so important right now?Dannah: Well, it's—let me say, take that from two angles. One reason it's important is because your children are being lied to, and we need to speak truth into their hearts and into their minds. We have to put so much truth into them that there's not room for the world's lies.When they see or hear a counterfeit, they immediately know, "That's not what I learned from God's Word. That's not what I learned from my parents whom I trust to be true." And they come to you and they say, "Hey, I just heard this." And you help—might not know the answers, but you help them figure out.But here's why I think it's really important, and this is why it's been important since the beginning of time. In Genesis 1:26 and 27-28, in that chapter we see God saying that He's made us in His image. And then He could have listed almost anything about us that would have made us like Him—our language proficiency, our ability to compose sonnets, our creativity, the fact that we would figure out how to defy gravity and fly to the moon. All these things about us are so God-like. Our even our emotions—animals are emotive, but not to the degree that we are.And yet God says one thing: "In the image of God He created them, male and female He created them."Our maleness and our femaleness is a distinct part of representing the image of God on this lost world. That's why it matters more than anything. And that's what our children need to know more than anything.How Parents Can Communicate God's TruthKerry: That is so good. I mean, it really is. We need to—and I love what y'all do is always going back to the Bible, you know. And this is a Christian conference. There's plenty of things out there for parents, but we want to make sure we're always going back to the Bible.So what are some things that parents could do? Like you want them to—one of the things that I know I've heard you say many times, we need to speak truth to our soul, but first we have to teach our kids what the truth is. How can parents communicate God's truth in regards to gender and sexuality and identity?Dannah: Well, I obviously encourage them to get them in the Word and some of these key passages that talk about our bodies. And I basically have three key passages that I think our kids need to study about this. I write about them in It's Great to Be a Girl. My husband and one of his co-authors writes about them in It's Great to Be a Guy. That's for kids aged 8 to 12, somewhere in that range.First one is in the book of 1 Corinthians. It says that our bodies exist to glorify God. That the purpose of our body is to glorify God. You know, we get really sidetracked and we think our bodies are for us to feel good, for us to feel pleasure, for us to look good and be this just vision of beauty or handsomeness, whatever it is.Our bodies were created to glorify God. That's why they exist—to showcase Him, to give honor to Him. That's why we dress carefully and tastefully and modestly. That's why we use language that's becoming and careful. That's why we don't get into the dark.I'm always concerned when we get into really dark-looking countenance and clothings and styles because Jesus is light and He is love and He is joy, and we want our countenance to reflect that. But my body doesn't exist for Dannah. My body exists for God.Then the second thing is the one I just mentioned earlier: Genesis 1:26 and 27, that the purpose of my body—how I glorify God—is as a female or male image-bearer. Because glorifying Him—I like to say that the moon glorifies the sun, okay? The moon doesn't have any light of its own, but it reflects the light of the sun, and that's why we have a full moon. They're so beautiful.Well, in the same way, we have to look like God. That's what glorifying Him means. And Genesis 1:26-27 says we do that best in the defined roles, the binary roles of maleness and femaleness. So they matter. They're important.And then the other verse that I think is really important is in Romans 12:1 and 2. It says, "I beg you brothers, by the mercy of God, that you present your body as a living sacrifice."So when my body, which was created to glorify God, doesn't feel like glorifying God as a female image-bearer of God, it becomes a sacrifice to God because I choose to live sacrificially according to the purpose of my body as a female image-bearer.Now I don't know that those are the only passages that your children need to get into, but those are three of the big ones that they need to memorize, dissect, be familiar with, understand. And that's going to give them more than studying all the counterfeits. That's going to give them the fuel they need for the conversations that are going to come up in their lives at one point or another.Age-Appropriate Conversations About TruthKerry: That's so good. Because we don't know what's going to happen in 20 years, you know, and what things they're going to need to know.When you think about even these three passages or talking about truth at different ages, because you've talked about 8 to 12 and then we've got teenagers, would you approach them differently or do you have any suggestions about that?Dannah: Well, with teens, of course, I'm going to be a lot more forthright. Although more and more—we just had a mom communicate with us that her child is attending a private school, not a Christian school but a private school. And just this year, the daughter came home and said, "Hey, we have Teacher X teaching at our school." And I'm not going to say the name. And it's not Mr. X or Mrs. X, it's Teacher X.And of course this mom said, "Well, do you know if Teacher X is male or female?" And she kind of said, "Well, this is what I think, but that's probably—they're trying not to look that way." So there's obviously some gender confusion there.What was really interesting is that when they have a student teacher, this parent had previously gotten a letter that said, "This is the teacher, this is what you need to know about them, I want to introduce them to you, they'll be starting on this date, they'll be ending on this date." In this case, that didn't happen.So that child is in about fifth grade. So we're not—and I've heard in my own school district of kindergarteners who are being told, "You get to pick your pronoun in my class. Maybe you weren't allowed that opportunity at home, but in my class you get to choose what you are, who you are."And so more and more we are having to have more of a conversation that we want, especially if we've chosen for our children not to be homeschooled or not to be in a space where their teaching is governed by truth. And that's not you, but it may be your friends, and it may be someone you're conversing with or having coffee with, you know, needs to know—hey, some crazy stuff is happening in some of these schools.And they don't believe it until it hits them. And then that's how this mom was. She's like, "I heard about it in California and I heard about it in this state and that state, but my state?" Yes, your state.So I think it's really important that we let them drive the questions though. So at high school we maybe are being, you know, we're talking about transgenderism, we're talking about all the different language that is used—the LGBTQ+, non-binary, binary, pansexuality.Mom, dad, you got to do some vocabulary work on this one. You've got to know the words, and that's going to help build your credibility. If you have a child who has been exposed, if you don't know a word, just say, "I'm not really sure what pansexuality is. Let's look it up and learn together, and then we're going to go to God's Word and figure out what He says about it."But when you're under, I would say 12 years old, I would just stick to God's truth. And what you're going to find, and what we have found as we have taken moms and daughters through It's Great to Be a Girl online Bible study or It's Great to Be a Guy online Bible study, is that studying it in the Bible and having mom and dad sitting there talking with you about it brings up the questions.They'll say, "I heard that so-and-so down the street has two dads," or "I heard that this friend at church has a brother who's becoming a sister." And you have the opportunity then to talk to them about that stuff.But I really like to let them drive that rather than us introducing things. And there's such a fine line there. And what I want to say is we don't—we have to be very careful about being afraid of the topic of sex because God isn't. He's not afraid of the topic, and we don't need to be afraid of it.But there are developmental phases where our children are more ready for some of these things than others. And if you can delay some of these conversations until they are developmentally ready, I think that's wise.The Importance of Reclaiming Biblical SexualityKerry: I think that's really good. And I appreciate you saying that we need to talk to them about sexuality more than just what sex is or how do we have kids, that type of thing. Because I know I heard on one of y'all's podcasts, you know, if we don't reclaim the sexuality and what's going on, the world is going to take over, which is what it's doing. And the church really does need to understand it. And if moms and dads don't, they need to do some research and stuff.Dannah: Well, and Ephesians 5:31 and 32 says, "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." And then it's almost like the Apostle Paul has ADHD or something. Because it's like he changes the subject. He says, "I'm really talking about Christ and the church."And this verse probably more than any other in Scripture tells us that marriage is meant to be a picture of the love Christ has for His bride, the church. But you can see that taught from Genesis to Revelation. It's a very important picture in the body of Christ.And if we do not wake up to really protect and defend that picture, we're going to wake up one day to see the gospel completely marginalized—not just marriage, but the gospel.And I guess my question for all of us is: if sex and marriage really does represent the love of Christ, the gospel, how motivated is Satan to see that picture destroyed in our lives, in the lives of our children? We have to be vigilant. We have to be informed. And we have to be so full of grace for those moments when we mess up or our kids mess up.Navigating With Grace and CompassionKerry: Yeah. And I think you just said that—I was coughing—grace and patience. Because you're talking about having compassion for these people that are really dealing with issues. And I think sometimes the church gets so, "Oh my goodness, look at them, they have children that are homosexuals or whatever."And yet we—I mean, no, we don't tolerate—I mean there's a blend between tolerating, but we also need to show grace at times because the compassion of God is what draws people back. The kindness and stuff. Would you have anything to say about sort of where you draw the line? And not that we want to judge people, but we do want to come alongside.So we've got moms here that want to help with their kids, but then they may have people in their family or in their church or something. What are maybe some practical things that they could do to handle these situations?Dannah: Well, some practical things are teaching our kids grace. Teaching them a gracious response.Bob and I, my husband and I, discipled a young man for many years who is non-binary now. Young adult man. And we still will have lunch with him. He doesn't live locally, but when he's coming through, he still wants to visit with us and talk with us.I got a birthday text from him that said, "You're like my second mom," because we have blessed him with our love and our presence, which is genuine. It's not fake. We adore him. He is easy to talk to, intelligent. We had so many high hopes for how he would—and still do—influence people for Christ.But we do not—we accept, but we do not affirm. We accept, but we do not affirm.So he knows—one of the last big conversations we had about his journey into homosexuality and a non-binary lifestyle was very pointed where my husband said, "I believe you've been set apart, and I believe that you have different desires, and that you have to obey the Lord with Romans 12:1 and 2. You need to sacrifice your desires for the purpose of your body glorifying Christ."And it was a very pointed conversation. And we haven't talked about that since then, but he knows where we stand.So we're honest, you know. One of the things that's really a challenge right now is the question of pronouns, right? Do we use the pronouns or do we not use the pronouns?And with this individual, I avoid using pronouns because the pronouns he wants are "they" and "them." I will not do that because God's Word commands me not to lie, and it's not truthful. However, I'm not going to rub salt in a wound of all the struggles that he's walking through.So I do my best to navigate through just not using either his new name that he wants or the pronouns. He knows that's what I'm doing.I know another woman who—she did transition for nine years. She had her breasts cut off, she had hormones, she was bearded, she was talking like a guy, she lived as Jake for nine years. Her name was Laura.Her mom stayed on her knees, stayed in a prodigal prayer group. And when it came to the name—she wanted to be called Jake—her mom said, "I can't call you that, but I know it's going to offend you. Can I call you honey? I'll do that."And it was a compromise they made together. So you see, accepting but not affirming is a really important line we have to make.Because this is the question that Rosaria Butterfield asked in a recent book that she's written. I believe the title is Five Lies of Our Post-Christian Culture. But she says, "Is your church, is your home, is your family a safe place for someone to repent of their sin of homosexuality or gender—" I'm not going to call it confusion, but rebellion. Okay?Because gender confusion, I would say, is probably going back to some of those syndromes I'm talking about, right? You're going to feel some confusion when you're not quite sure how your body is showing up, right?But gender rebellion, I would say, is what my friend Laura went through. She knew she was a girl, but she wanted to stick it to her mom and stick it to God. And she did for nine years. And then the Lord got a hold of her heart.But partly, I think the Lord got a hold of her heart because her mom never accepted Jake, never accepted the lie, never used the pronouns. And yet she still loved and accepted the child.Kerry: Fine line.Dannah: So good.The Reality of Dealing With These IssuesKerry: Yeah, we've got to love. And I, for one, I mean, these aren't just teenagers. You know, I had friends whose kids have transitioned, and the parents, the mom and the dad don't even agree on the pronoun issue, you know. And that's a really hard thing.What I really like about what you just said is she communicated with her daughter and they talked about it instead of just doing this and then, you know, that child getting angry and then blocking them out of your life kind of thing. And so communication just seems to be vital as well, even if they're going down that path.Dannah: Yeah, so communication before and after is key. And it's not easy. It's hard. And there'll be tears on both sides and disagreements. But you want to walk through it in such a way that you maintain a place where they know what the truth is and they know where to come when they finally do understand what the truth is.Kerry: Yeah, I always tell—because I host a prodigal prayer group too—and the two things I'm always like, we can always love and we can always pray. You know, we cannot change them, but we can pray and we can never give up. You know, God's not giving up on us, so we shouldn't be giving up on our kids or other family.Dannah: Yeah. And you know, when it comes to praying, I find that people that I love that aren't walking with the Lord—they might be offended if I start asking them, "Who do you think Jesus is?" But they're never offended when I say, "How can I pray for you?"They might define it differently, but it keeps that door open of them knowing, "I care about your spirit. I care about your spiritual life. I care about you." They know that praying is important to me.And when I just say, "How can I pray for you?" their hearts often just flood open with things that they want prayer for.How Did We Get Here?Kerry: That's a really good point too. Okay, let's—how have we talked about all this? How do we get where we are today? Because, you know, like we said, 30 years ago we would have never thought—yeah, you know, there was homosexuality back then, but that was pretty much it. How do we get here?Dannah: Oh, I think that it's how we got here is, you know, we were an Augustinian worldview. The United States of America had this worldview that was predominantly established by Augustine, St. Augustine of Hippo. He believed that love was the highest good in humanity and that that love should be reflective of the truth of the Bible.And that really was the worldview of our culture. And that meant that there was one man and one woman marriage.And then when it really started to break down, honestly, was Freud, who felt that the highest good was sex. He thought that that was the highest need in a human body. And so the conversation started to change as Freud, who did bring us some decent diagnostic tools in terms of understanding and being more aware of our emotions and our mental health—but psychology doesn't do anything, really, if you look at the stats of recovery from psychological methods. Hardly anything outside of Jesus.I mean, single-digit recovery. In my mind, if I'm having some mental health problems, I don't want to go to a place that can give me a single-digit percentage chance of getting better.But then enter Alfred Kinsey. Alfred Kinsey came into the scene, and he was a very unwell man emotionally and mentally. And so he was really excited about the things that Freud taught and believed that he could prove that not only was his theory correct—that our highest need was sex—but that most of the sexual things that these prudish Americans thought were, quote-unquote, sinful were actually very normal behavior. Things like homosexuality and even pedophilia.And he said, "I'm going to prove that those are okay." So he did the Human Sexuality Volume 1 and Volume 2 reports. And his research was really horrific. He hired pedophiles who had been jailed for pedophilia to conduct experiments on children.And it was really child sexual abuse that was recorded in those volumes. But nobody talked about that. Nobody said who did the research and how did you get it done. At that time, it just became the playbook for the sexual revolution of the '60s.But they said, "Look, look, we do want sex. We do need sex." And then the sexual revolution—during that time, a virgin in college named Hugh Hefner read those volumes that Kinsey wrote and said—and this is a quote—"I'm going to be Kinsey's pamphleteer."And as you know, then he went on to create his pamphlet, which was Playboy, normalizing objectifying women. I'm not going to call it anything other than what it is.And so it was this—it was a lie we all wanted to believe. Not me, not you, but the culture wanted to believe because it justified their sin and their desires instead of controlling them. They could justify those sins and desires.And I think when we had about a 30-year climb to making gay marriage legal, but that was kind of a floodgate moment. You know, I feel like from the night that the White House was covered in rainbow colors until today, it's just been a floodgate of Sodom and Gomorrah-esque sin.And whereas it was this slow, steady climb for decades, now it's just a playground.Signs of Hope and BacklashDannah: Now, I am thankful that we're seeing some—I guess what I would call backlash against some of this. In Canada, this year—last year, rather—we saw the first case where a patient who underwent transgender gender reassignment surgery is suing the physician for what happened to her body.Because she said, "I came to you with a mental health problem, and when I was very mentally unwell, you told me the solution was to cut up my body." And she's suing that doctor.Tavistock, which is a gender assignment clinic in the UK, has been shut down because so many of the doctors and nurses are saying, "You only saw these patients two or three times before you let them self-diagnose that they were gender-confused and began treating them." And the doctors and nurses said, "That's not okay. We didn't adequately find out if they really did have gender dysphoria. We're just letting them self-assign."And that's still happening in the United States. But because Canada and the UK are ahead of us, I'm encouraged that we're going to start to see backlash very soon.So don't stop using the correct pronouns. Don't stop calling girls "she" and "her," and don't stop calling boys "him" and "his." Like, we are not crazy. We just feel crazy because the conversation happening in our culture is a little mad.But we are going to start to see a backlash in the next five to 10 years.Kerry: It sounds depressing, but it is encouraging.Dannah: And our hope is in Jesus, who we know can—always, just like I didn't think the education system could ever get fixed, and then COVID hit. And I was like, "Oh my goodness, look, God can do something when it looks like everything's falling apart."He can do the same thing with the gender and sexuality issues. And—excuse me—and even our hope isn't even in this world. I just have to say that. Like, more and more, as it gets crazier and crazier, it makes me hungrier for heaven and the new heaven and earth that we will know after Jesus' return.And for anybody, you know, who maybe you're listening to this and you're the one that cut up your body, you allowed that to happen—you know, when Jesus returns, the new heaven and the new earth, He's going to perfect you and receive you as He created you and fix everything that this world can't fix. And there is such hope in that.Kerry: That is so good. Thank you so much. And yes, He can. And He redeems ashes to beauty all the time. So amen.So I know y'all have some resources that I think would be helpful. Could you share a little bit about that?Resources to Help FamiliesDannah: Sure. Well, I mentioned It's Great to Be a Girl and It's Great to Be a Guy. Those are two books that we take parents and kids through an online study on, but you could do it at home. You can do it as part of a homeschool curriculum.Another book that I have is Lies Girls Believe and A Mom's Guide to Lies Girls Believe. Those go together because I think this extends beyond gender. It's a battle for truth.And the interesting thing about truth is that we know Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life." He was truth. So this whole conversation is an assault on Him.And so that book, and Lies Young Women Believe, introduced teen girls and tween girls to really studying: What is truth? What does it mean? And how do I figure out when I'm believing a lie? And what God's Word says about it, and what is true?So I would say those are really important books. We're working on Lies Young Men Believe, but we also—my friend Aaron Davis just wrote Lies Boys Believe. So good tools.We've had lots of friends tell us they've used them as homeschool curriculum. And I would love to see you explore them. They are great. They really are.Kerry: I have—well, I've done Lies Women Believe. And then I will say, too, for those of you—this probably doesn't pertain to a lot of you—but they have them in Spanish. I used to work in El Salvador and go down there once a month and work with a school down there. And we started with Lies Women Believe, but they had a teen girl Bible study, so then they did the Lies Young Women Believe.I don't know if they've done the girl, but when I was looking at your site, I was like, "Oh, they have Spanish books too." So if y'all are in another country, just know that there are resources for you there as well.Dannah: So wonderful.Closing EncouragementKerry: Well, as we close, is there anything you would like to say just in closing?Dannah: Just I think it's so important right now that we are just so deeply in love with Jesus. It's one thing to know all these things in our head, right? But until it gets here...The reason we have prodigals prodigalizing and the reason we have deconstructors deconstructing is because there was a lot here, but we didn't quite maybe get it here. And so what I'm learning is that I can't push it here in the kids I'm teaching, but I can do what I need to do to sit at the feet of Jesus and minister to Him in worship, in prayer, and opening the Word.I don't want to just know the facts of what I read in my Bible this morning. I want to know that I had an encounter with Jesus.So my prayer for you is not just that you would know the facts about all these hard conversations that we're having to have right now, but that more than anything else, you would be so in love with Jesus that your heart beats to reflect His image.And so I pray that for you, and I pray that for your children too.Kerry: Oh, thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Thanks for just taking a little time out of your day to be with us. I really appreciate it.Dannah: Oh, it was so good to be here, Kerry. Thank you. God bless you. I pray that you're so blessed by this conference.Kerry: Very good. Well, I am Kerry Beck with Life Skills Leadership Summit. We'll talk to you next time.

Les chats tricolores, aussi appelés "écaille de tortue" ou "calico", présentent une combinaison de trois couleurs : noir, roux et blanc. Fait fascinant : ces chats sont presque toujours des femelles. Cette particularité n'est pas liée au hasard, mais à la génétique des chromosomes sexuels, et plus précisément au gène de la couleur du pelage porté par le chromosome X.Chez les mammifères, le sexe est déterminé par deux chromosomes : XX pour les femelles, XY pour les mâles. Or, les gènes responsables des couleurs rousse et noire chez le chat sont situés sur le chromosome X. Le blanc, lui, est déterminé par un autre gène, indépendant, qui agit en masquant certaines zones de couleur.Concrètement, une femelle (XX) peut hériter d'un gène roux sur un chromosome X et d'un gène noir sur l'autre X. Mais les cellules d'un organisme femelle ne peuvent pas exprimer les deux chromosomes X en même temps. Un phénomène appelé inactivation du chromosome X, ou "lyonisation", entre alors en jeu : dans chaque cellule, un des deux chromosomes X est désactivé au hasard. Résultat : certaines zones du corps expriment le gène du pelage noir, d'autres celui du pelage roux. C'est ce mélange aléatoire qui produit l'apparence tricolore. Les taches blanches, elles, sont dues à un gène différent qui bloque la pigmentation à certains endroits.Chez les mâles (XY), les choses sont différentes : ils n'ont qu'un seul chromosome X, donc un seul gène de couleur parmi le noir ou le roux. Ils ne peuvent donc pas naturellement avoir les deux couleurs. Voilà pourquoi les mâles sont en général soit entièrement roux, soit entièrement noirs, parfois avec du blanc, mais rarement tricolores.Cependant, il existe une exception génétique rare : le syndrome de Klinefelter, chez les chats mâles porteurs de deux chromosomes X et un Y (XXY). Ce déséquilibre chromosomique leur donne la capacité d'exprimer à la fois les gènes du noir et du roux, avec une inactivation d'un des X comme chez les femelles. Ces mâles peuvent donc être tricolores, mais ils sont stériles dans l'immense majorité des cas, car ce syndrome perturbe fortement la fonction reproductrice.Ainsi, le mystère du chat tricolore repose sur un phénomène génétique complexe mêlant chromosomes sexuels, inactivation aléatoire de l'ADN, et mutation rare chez les mâles. Une simple promenade dans la rue peut donc croiser une merveille de génétique en train de faire sa sieste au soleil. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Dr Tet Yap, a consultant andrological surgeon, joins me this week to talk about male fertility, the role of andrology, and the challenges faced by men in accessing fertility care. We discuss the differences between andrologists and urologists, the increasing awareness of male fertility issues, common causes of male infertility, and the implications of Klinefelter syndrome. We discuss:How Andrology is a subspecialty of urology focused on male reproductive health.Why there is a significant shortage of andrologists compared to gynecologists.How male fertility issues are often overlooked in fertility discussions.How ICSI can treat infertility but does not address underlying male health issues.How Klinefelter syndrome is a common genetic cause of male infertility.Why many men with fertility issues have not seen an andrologist before seeking treatment.How awareness of male fertility testing is increasing, but access remains a challenge.Why proper diagnosis can lead to better treatment outcomes for male fertility.Why patients often experience delays in receiving appropriate care for male fertility issues.How online consultations can help connect patients with andrology specialists.You can find more information on Tet here.

In episode 276 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked back in with James Roffey. James is a personal trainer and semi-professional footballer. He was previously the business owner of his personal training brand ‘The Mental Health PT' but due to personal and business reasons, has rebranded and relaunched it as ‘Ultimate Body and Mind'. James first came on the pod in JCIP #183 where he discussed his journey into personal training and his struggle and recovery from a long-term eating disorder, which was triggered by three major life events. Since then, a massive amount has happened in James's life, positively and negatively. For the former, he signed for non-league club Sheffield FC, only for the team to sign a professional goalkeeper the day before the transfer window shut and make him the number two goalkeeper at the last minute. As a 36-year-old, James needed to play minutes and had to leave the club and join another team as a result. For the latter, he has separated from his wife, which became messy and caused James severe mental health difficulties. During this separation, James discovered he was infertile because of a genetic condition he had called Klinefelter syndrome which, according to the NHS website, is characterised by boys being born with an extra X chromosome, so for James he has XXY, as opposed to XY for other men without the condition. It's important to state that the X chromosome is not a "female" chromosome and is present in everyone. The presence of a Y chromosome denotes male sex. Symptoms of Klinefelter Syndrome in childhood can include: shyness and low self-confidence, problems with reading, writing, spelling and paying attention, mild dyslexia or dyspraxia, low energy levels, and difficulty socialising or expressing feelings. In teenagers, it is characterised by growing taller than expected. Finally in adulthood, as James tragically discovered, it is characterised by infertility as well as low sex drive, smaller testes and erection problems, which James bravely admits on the podcast but originally attributed it to his eating disorder. Kleinefelter Syndrome is also recognised as a Difference in Sexual Development (DSD). James also began suffering from cluster migraines because of the stress of his marriage breaking down, as well as a myriad of other events happening which we can't discuss on this podcast. James's uncle also tragically took his own life in 2024 after trying to take his own life previous to that three times. James says his uncle was let down by the system; the healthcare system for not providing adequate care, and the family court system as his uncle separated from his wife and claims he was parentally alienated from his step-children by his ex-wife. In Part 3, we discuss James's business rebrand and why he did it, a deep dive into his marriage breakdown, his infertility diagnosis, drama in his football career and how he took himself from rock bottom to where he is now. Infertility is one of the most stigmatised experiences one can feel as a man for obvious reasons and we are very proud of James for the bravery he has shown on this podcast to discuss it so openly and courageously for all of the men who live with Klinefelter Syndrome in the UK, which is currently as high as 1 in 600 in this country.

The “I” in LGBTQIA2S stands for intersex, which represents a seemingly endless list of possible combinations of our human X and Y chromosomes.  Some intersex individuals are misdiagnosed with various other ailments in their youth — like Klinefelter's Syndrome — and ultimately have to make difficult, life and identity-altering decisions in adulthood. Like actress and intersex advocate Juleigh Mayfield, who was forced to transition to female in her forties. HOST: Christopher J. Beale

Virginia (Ginnie) Isaacs Cover has worked throughout her career with children and adults with complex medical conditions and developmental disabilities. She is an advocate for those with disabilities and their families and published a widely read guidebook for those affected by X and Y chromosome variations. She explores the impact of a prenatal diagnosis on a young family in her new book, Supplemental Needs: A Novel. Ginnie became a “special needs parent” when her younger son was diagnosed prenatally with 47,XXY, also known as Klinefelter syndrome. Although sex chromosome aneuploidy (SCA) is more common than Down syndrome at an estimated 1 in 400 live births, it is recognized and properly diagnosed in fewer than 25 percent of the affected population. She became a passionate advocate for families affected by disabilities, including the X and Y chromosome variations, and provides educational programs for families and professionals who work with this population. In 2012, she published Living with Klinefelter Syndrome, Trisomy X, and 47,XYY. The book provides clear explanations of the genetics involved, as well as diagnosis, disclosure, development from infancy through potential health and fertility issues, and educational and psycho-social considerations. This guidebook has helped thousands of people grow their understanding of this condition. She believes it is equally important for literature to cover the emotional impact that prenatal testing has on parents while also improving early identification of X and Y chromosome conditions. She felt this could only be done through the sharing of stories. Her goal in writing the novel was to explore the impact of a prenatal genetic diagnosis on a young family who decides to continue a pregnancy despite a medical geneticist's advice. Supplemental Needs: A Novel portrays a young family whose lives change on learning through prenatal genetic diagnosis that their baby will have Klinefelter syndrome, most likely causing some degree of disability, as well as infertility and possible sexuality issues. In this episode, Ginnie speaks about prenatal counseling; termination of pregnancy when chromosomal variations exist; societal acceptance of KS, the neurodiverse, LGBTQ individuals and how it has changed over time; and attitudes in Judaism toward LGBTQ individuals and why these are so different across the branches (Reform, Conservative, Orthodox) Supplemental Needs incorporates accurate information and creates needed conversation around what we each believe about continuing a pregnancy where there may be some level of disability, or when there may be a slightly elevated rate of homosexuality, or of gender dysphoria. Readers gain greater awareness and understanding about the parental experience of when a child is not following a typical developmental trajectory, familiarizing the public with sex chromosome aneuploidy in a non-sensational manner. "I want readers to experience the sadness, fear, and hopefulness felt by [the characters] as they wrestle with the choices that must be made, and the impact they have on their son, and their family," Ginnie says. "Through the characters and events, readers will also confront the research suggesting that sexual orientation and identity may be heavily influenced by DNA." Ginnie lives in the Washington, D.C., metro area and has two adult sons and three grandchildren. She volunteers through her synagogue for the Interfaith Refugee Support group. She also is a board member for L'Arche Long Island, a non-profit agency providing housing for adults with developmental disabilities, vocational and life skills training. Ginnie holds a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Michigan.

Ryan is the president and founder of California-based non-profit Living with XXY. Ryan is a 37-year-old with Klinefelter syndrome or 47, XXY. Klinefelter syndrome results from an extra X chromosome, affecting roughly 1 in 500 males. Ryan's parents learned about his XXY diagnosis during his mother's pregnancy. His experiences navigating XXY and those of the over 600 families he's met help guide and inspire Ryan's work today. While Ryan's background includes work as a fine dining chef and action sports photographer, he currently spends most of his time advocating for his community through his non-profit. Living with XXY was officially established in 2019 and focuses on creating a community, spreading awareness, and sharing positive traits for those with an XXY diagnosis. Living with XXY is growing daily, reaching over 40 countries. Ryan is traveling around the US, meeting with clinics, professors/students, other professionals, and families to share the work of Living with XXY and create opportunities for connection for those with XXY.

Brittany is the mother of a 4 1/2-year-old boy named Callan. Their son was experiencing bloody noses at a young age. After a week in the hospital, Callan was diagnosed with Aplastic anemia, which is a rare but serious blood condition that occurs when your bone marrow cannot make enough new blood cells for your body to work. At the same time, he was also diagnosed with Klinefelter syndrome.

The Reverend Harcourt ("Harky") Klinefelter joins Rachel and David to share memories from the time he spent working with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Harky, a DA member, talks about serving as Dr. King's press officer, and the Selma and Montgomery marches. He brings the voices of long-ago freedom fighters to life, and about working on Dr. King's funeral. Clips that are mentioned in the interview and a transcription: The part of the speech that appeared during Dr. King's funeral was from “The Drum Major Instinct” King concluded the sermon by imagining his own funeral. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mefbog-b4-4 The three hour documentary that only aired once is “King: A Filmed Record... Montgomery to Memphis”. The documentary was recently restored and can once again be seen in its original form. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065944/ The first part of the interview with the 10 year old Selma marcher is a bit hard to hear because of the quality of the recording. Here is a transcription of the first half: `I didn't go prepared to march. I had planned to go all the way  but I wasn't sure they were going to be able to take me because they taken all the names and I didn't take anything but my coat. So I had to sleep (in the) cold, and the heaters (in the tent) went out and the wind and everything was real terrible, and so I stayed woke (awake) that night by the little gas burner they had outside. The next day-- the next day we marched and marched and it rained, and that's the day we really had to walk hard  all that rain.  I didn't get a cold, the next day it rained which was Tuesday, that was through Lownes country, Yeah, that's the day you had to `pick them up and put them (your feet) down'. Blisters and everything, oh boy I'm telling you, I said  I know they (the racists) they're going to try something even if they have to wait until we come back. I said `Lord,I say, I know these people, in Lownes country. All I want you to do is take care of me and give me the strength to walk faster through this stretch. I mean, I prayed that prayer all the way through there. I didn't have any water all day  because if we stopped we had to run to catch up, you know, and I wanted to be credited for walking all the way  So I just did without water, and my tongue was swole (swelled) up. The next day, ah, the nurses out there they waited on me and she came and she say (said) `Little girl are you going to march today?' I say (said) `Sure I am.? All those blisters?' I say (said) `There not hurting, only when I stop'. And you stayed out all the time?  `All the time, every camp we stayed in. I slept in it.' How did you feel when you marched up the street to the Capital? `My feet were so bad! and when I had the flag carrying, one of the biggest ones out there, I felt so happy, I didn't knew what to do  Dr King, I think he's the greatest that's happened. Really,  it's just like heaven. And I'll go anywhere he tells me to go, really, with blisters, sores, sore head, anything.  You know, I couldn't hardly breathe when I was out there, I fainted, I passed out, and everything, but I ended up going on ahead. What do you feel the march was accomplished? `We're 50 years ahead from where we started when this voter registration started. Really in Selma, 50 years, because people can walk around and not be afraid. If someone get killed that doesn't stop them, I didn't walk 50 miles in vain.'  You feel that people will be afraid to register vote? `Well, I don't think they should be afraid because after all they have been killing Negroes all the time and noting has be done about it. They do find out who killed'em (them) now. This has been a big improvement? `If you will excuse me for the slang, "It's just a nigger dead."'

Episode 444... Our beloved Niners took a fat crap in the Big Game, of course, but that didn't prevent us from featuring a new BGP cover of San Francisco's Bad Shit Niners song! If you remember the SF Bay Area Thrasher Skate Rock band with members such as Tony and Trixie Trujillo, and the late and great Thrasher Mag skate legend Jake Phelps. We gave it a modern twist with some updated lyrics. With the loss, not much love in the air as far as Valentine's Day lix, so a few of those along with some annoying sports-themed tunes and a handful of 2024 rippers from Bandcamp!

Kelly Stine is the mother to Connor, who is 17, a senior in high school. Connor encourages other boys his age to share their stories and help build a community for teenagers with XXY. Connor loves to play Roblox and Brawlstars. He also enjoys his government class because his teacher is super funny. At the end of 10th grade, she noticed his maturity was not developing like others. After some blood work, Kelly noticed his FSH levels were off the charts. She started to learn about Klinefelter syndrome and asked her doctor to do a Karyotype. Once he was diagnosed, they did Micro-Tese which came back negative. Kelly says "starting testosterone has been a night-and-day difference for Connor."

Carson Blake shares with us about her son Louden, who is now four years old and has been in Early Intervention since he was six months old. Carson talks about why EI has been super helpful for her son and his accomplishments. Carson also got her state of Missouri to add Klinefelter syndrome to the First Steps Early Intervention system for infants and toddlers, birth to age three, who have delayed development or diagnosed conditions associated with developmental disabilities.

Anne Price had an NIPT screening due to her age of 41. One week later, while their family was on vacation, her two older kids received a call while waiting for the Finding Nemo ride at Epcot. Her phone rang. Her OBGYN, who had a very somber tone of voice, delivered the news horribly, telling her the results were a sex chromosome abnormality and the mention of Klinefelter syndrome. He said, "The good news is that your child doesn't have Down syndrome." The call got disconnected, and Anne couldn't leave the line, so she started to cry uncontrollably during the ride.

Colleen Sander's son, Jackson, was born at 29 weeks and wasn't speaking at the age of two. Once Jackson started school, he was given speech therapy, and over time, something didn't seem right for Colleen. Jackson, 14, had some routine blood work done a few days before receiving a strange phone call from the NHS on a Sunday evening around 9 p.m. The doctors asked for him to come back and do some follow-up testing. Colleen jumped on Google to research what the results might have meant. She started to cry when she was reading about Klinefelter syndrome, checking all the boxes off that this was most likely what her son could have.

Le caryotype est un peu notre carte d'identité génétique. Il rassemble tous les chromosomes d'un individu, avec des détails sur leur forme, leur taille et leur nombre. La détermination du sexe génétique est faite grâce à deux chromosomes bien connus, le X et le Y. En fonction de l'absence ou de la présence de certains gènes, chaque personne développe des caractères sexuels primaires -testicules, ovaires, utérus, etc. - et secondaires - pilosité, largeur d'épaules, menstruations, etc.Dans la plupart des cas, les femmes possèdent deux chromosomes X et les hommes possèdent un chromosome X associé à un chromosome Y. Mais les hommes qui naissent avec le syndrome de Klinefelter ont une particularité : ils présentent une trisomie sexuelle et ont donc deux chromosomes X en plus du chromosome Y.Les symptômes du syndrome de KlinefelterLes hommes atteints de ce syndrome développent des traits typiquement masculins, avec par exemple une musculature prononcée ou une carrure large. Mais, dès l'enfance, certaines caractéristiques les distinguent. Ils peuvent ainsi avoir des testicules sous-développés, voire absents, et un pénis de très petite taille. En grandissant, ces personnes atteignent une taille souvent plus importante que la norme, avec une faible pilosité corporelle et des variations dans le développement sexuel. La puberté est généralement retardée, avec des possibles difficultés d'apprentissage, des retards dans l'acquisition du langage et des troubles comportementaux.Les adultes touchés par le syndrome de Klinefelter sont souvent stériles et ne peuvent pas concevoir d'enfant de façon classique.Comment se forme un caryotype de Klinefelter ?Environ 1 sur 500 à 1000 bébés masculins sont touchés par la trisomie sexuelle. Cette pathologie se développe très tôt, à cause d'une malformation chez l'un ou l'autre gamète sexuel. Normalement, le spermatozoïde n'a qu'un seul chromosome sexuel, un X ou un Y, et l'ovule n'en a également qu'un seul, un X. Lors de la fécondation, les deux apports génétiques fusionnent pour donner naissance au caryotype du bébé, qui comporte les deux chromosomes sexuels transmis par ses parents.Seulement, dans le cas du syndrome de Klinefelter, l'un des gamètes, ovule ou spermatozoïde, contient un chromosome X supplémentaire. Cet ajout perturbe ensuite le développement classique des caractéristiques sexuelles.Le principal facteur de risque connu et bien avéré à ce jour est l'âge maternel. Les risques de trisomie augmentent lorsque la mère dépasse l'âge de 35 ans. Des antécédents familiaux pourraient aussi jouer un rôle dans l'apparition d'un syndrome de Klinefelter, mais les études n'ont pas encore abouti sur ce sujet. Hébergé par Acast.

Understanding Late-Onset Hypogonadism in MenAs men age, their sex hormones, particularly testosterone, naturally decrease. This condition, often referred to as late-onset hypogonadism (LOH), can affect men differently than women experiencing menopause. It usually starts around the age of 30, reducing testosterone levels by 1% to 2% annually. Recognizing the Differences in HypogonadismNot all hypogonadism is the same. Young men can experience it due to issues like Klinefelter syndrome, resulting in testicular failure. However, in older men, it is primarily due to aging, and the testosterone levels don't drop as dramatically. Key QuestionsSeveral uncertainties surround LOH. For example, it's still unclear whether the symptoms are primarily due to aging or a direct result of lower testosterone levels. There's also debate around the benefits and risks of testosterone therapy in managing LOH. How Common is LOH?The occurrence of LOH varies, with about 6% to 39% of men aged 30 and above being affected. The chances of experiencing LOH symptoms increase with age and are consistent across different racial and ethnic groups. Diagnosing LOHDiagnosing LOH isn't straightforward. Doctors look for signs like decreased sexual desire, energy, and other related symptoms, along with measuring testosterone levels. The diagnosis might involve questionnaires that ask about symptoms related to aging and testosterone deficiency. Treatment OptionsWhen it comes to treatment, testosterone therapy is common, but it comes with both benefits and risks. It can improve aspects like mood, sexual desire, and body composition, but may also pose risks such as heart issues and prostate complications. Treatment should be personalized, considering the individual's symptoms and medical history. What to Expect in TreatmentVarious forms of testosterone replacement therapies, like oral medications and skin patches, are available. Close monitoring is essential during treatment to observe the effectiveness and any potential side effects. Regular check-ups will involve evaluating testosterone levels and other essential health aspects like the prostate health. LOH is a condition influenced by aging in men, affecting their hormone levels and overall well-being. Recognizing the symptoms, seeking professional diagnosis, and pursuing personalized treatment are crucial steps in managing this condition effectively. Hosted on Acast.

Russell Martin is the first person we know to be able to have kids without medical interventions. After his two boys were all grown up, Russell was diagnosed with mosaic Klinefelter syndrome in his mid 40's. After extensive research on mosaic XXY, even after his doctors told him there was no way he could have XXY, a karyotype test years later revealed he did. What is Mosaic Klinefelter syndrome? Klinefelter mosaics (47, XXY/46, XY) are less severely affected, and the chance of finding sperm in the ejaculate in these males is significantly higher than in nonmosaic (47, XXY) cases. https://livingwithxxy.org/
