Biblical Understanding of Sexuality and LGBTQ Issues course image
Description

In today's complex world, how can you root your understanding of human sexuality firmly in Scripture? This two-session workshop is designed specifically for evangelical college students who want to develop a strong, Christ-centered perspective on identity, relationships, and sex.

We will dive deep into Biblical texts to build a foundational understanding of God's design, then apply that lens to the most pressing issues you face—including gender identity, LGBTQ+ topics, and current cultural narratives. You'll gain practical tools and confidence to engage these subjects with both theological clarity and compassionate sensitivity, enabling you to speak truth and minister pastorally to those around you.

Don't just react to the culture—learn how to respond with grace and truth. Equip yourself to live out your faith and engage with sexual matters in a way that honors God.
