About this Episode

Parenting in an LGBT-affirming world can be daunting, but Rachel Gilson, author of “Parenting Without Panic,” is here to equip you! In this FamilyLife Today episode, hosts Dave and Ann Wilson talk with Rachel about how to guide your children through complex topics like same-sex attraction and transgender identities with biblical truth and grace. Rachel shares her own experiences, from initial fears about her daughter’s teacher to candid conversations with her kids about God’s design. Learn why starting early, using age-appropriate language, and emphasizing God’s “yes-first” vision for male, female, marriage, and singleness is crucial.
