Crucial Conversations: Gender & Body || Rev. Michael Hands

Join Rev. Michael Hands as he explores what it means to glorify God with our gender in "Gender and the Body." This sermon unpacks how being created in God’s image shapes our understanding of gender while celebrating the distinct qualities of each. With insights from Genesis 1:27 and Matthew 19:4-6, we’ll examine cultural and biblical definitions of gender, understanding why gender is significant yet not the core of our identity.Michael also addresses key questions such as: What does it mean for us to honour God with our gender? Where should we find our identity? Additionally, he approaches complex topics like gender dysphoria with both truth and compassion, calling us to a biblical view of gender that supports the physical and spiritual dimensions of our lives.We pray this message encourages you as we apprentice to become more like Jesus.We’d love to hear from [email protected]/newlifegoldcoastwww.instagram.com/@newlifegoldcoast ★ Support this podcast ★
