The world today claims that your identity is entirely defined by you. As parents raising children in this world, how do we teach children the gospel and explain how it impacts gender identity? This book of letters written to the author’s children follows the overarching story line of the Bible, making it clear that transgenderism is a symptom of a far deeper problem that only Jesus can heal. Written with biblical clarity, sensitivity, and an awareness that people affected by these issues are people who need Jesus, just like everyone else, this book will help parents who are looking for guidance on how to explain gender issues to their children.

David Martin has provided parents with a pastoral resource to equip children on a controversial and challenging topic in age–appropriate ways. Parents can no longer sit out the transgender debate, and David’s book is a useful tool to help parents bring the truths of God’s Word to bear on a broken world.

David Martin has written a very gracious book about an extremely sensitive topic. The issue of transgenderism is one that is at the forefront of modern culture. It’s certainly not a topic that we can just sweep under the rug and avoid, especially with our children. Parents, we need this book. Get it, read it, and then consider how to apply it to your conversations with your children.

This is no manual from a detached observer but a plea from the heart of someone seriously concerned for the well–being of his own family and for the glory of God.

In a very timely book David Martin provides some excellent ways to talk to our children about this confusing issue. David’s approach is kind, caring and sensitive in manner. I recommend this book to you.
