This is a fantastic movie which is both surprising and entertaining on so many levels.

THE GENDER REVOLUTION
Trans, Bi, Ace, Enby, Cis, Pansexual, Agender, Intersex, Fluid. You may have heard these and other sex and gender labels from the LGBTQIA++++ spectrum. You may know someone who identifies by one or even a combination of these. Some of you or your children may feel challenged to select an identity label or a ‘preferred pronoun’ from this ever-growing neo-vocabulary. Others may be confused, even confronted by the plethora of terminology. If you are a Christian, you are probably feeling uncertain and unprepared to deal with the issues that arise.
This presentation will:
Describe the empirical research basis of the four categories of sex and gender
(i) Biological sex
(ii) Gendered behaviour
(iii) Sexual orientation and
(iv) Gender identity;
Discuss the narrative of sex and gender in current postmodern post-truth culture of radical individualism and transgender ideology; and
Consider what God has to say in the Bible on sex and gender. And how this contributes to a holistic and healthy life
The presentation will explore the importance of speaking truth on sex and gender while maintaining compassion for those who struggle with sexual and gender concerns.

We will be organising a carpool for the event and meeting for breakfast before heading into the city for the day.
