In the 21st-century West, the Christian sexual ethic looks like a major obstacle to faith in Jesus. For many today, the freedom to express one’s sexual identity is believed to be a fundamental right. As a result, the Christian claim that sex only belongs in male-female marriage is seen not just as foolish but also as dangerous and hateful—similar to the evil of racism. 

Even inside the church, some struggle to experience the goodness of Christian sexual ethics. When marriage and the biological family are viewed as the only real place to experience relational intimacy, singles fear that they face a lifetime of inevitable loneliness. And Christians who experience same-sex attraction feel like following Jesus means living without love. 

At the same time, many churches are reeling from the progress of the trans movement in recent years. They don’t know how to offer a truly biblical understanding of what it means for human beings to be made male and female in the image of God, while also caring for church members who were born with disorders of sexual development and for those who struggle with gender dysphoria.

This cohort situates the Bible’s “no” to same-sex sexual relationships in the context of the Bible’s “yes” to love between believers, with the Bible’s greatest love-story of Jesus and his people at the heart of the message. It will help church leaders recover the biblical vision for marriage and singleness and move toward a church culture that enfolds all believers in a family of love. It will also help church leaders think biblically and pastorally about the challenges and opportunities presented by the trans movement.
