Formation Class - Gender & Sexuality
There are few more contested topics right now than sexuality and gender. Many are asking what the difference is between men and women (or even, if there is a difference in the first place). And simultaneously, some who are confident there is a difference often fail to love and understand those who struggle with their sense of gender in substantial ways.
For followers of Jesus, this raises a question: does God have a design for our humanity and our gender? If so, what is it? And how might that design inform the way we understand ourselves, and the way we relate to others?
Over the course of the day, we will cover the following topics:
What is God’s design for men and women?
What does it mean to be created in the image of God?
How does our culture get masculinity and femininity wrong?
Men and Women as Friends
Men and Women as Spouses
How should Christians think about transgender identity?
The cost for the class is $10, which covers resources, coffee and lunch! If cost is an issue, please email Tim.
