A one-day seminar for churches to equip Christians with an informed biblical worldview on gender & sexuality that clearly presents the truth with love, conviction, and hope.

Truth & Love Seminar

Why was this seminar created?

Who is this seminar for?

This seminar is designed for churches - a resource for busy pastors to equip their people with a biblical and culturally informed perspective on one of today’s most prominent, crucial topics.

This seminar is intended for believers -  those who’ve placed their faith in Christ, are committed to following His Word, and want a greater understanding of what the Bible has to say about gender and sexuality. Individuals who are new to faith or are still questioning are welcome, but please know that this seminar is intended for those who profess the Christian faith, and all content will be presented from that point of view.

This seminar is for every season of life - parents, married couples, singles, grandparents, etc. It will equip you to navigate conversations surrounding gender & sexuality in all your relationships - in the workplace, with your kids, in your friendships, around your dinner table, and on your social media. 

This seminar will cover adult content - teenagers are welcome, but parents must use their judgment on their child’s readiness. If you have questions about specific content, you’re welcome to reach out!

The seminar is divided into 3 sessions - at the end of each session in the participant guide, there’s a resource page with dozens of recommendations for further education. This guide can be provided to participants digitally, in print, or both depending on the needs of the church.

I found this seminar to be extremely beneficial. Bethany provided a concise and professional brochure that was packed with additional information and resources. Despite the tough topics, her speaking style is engaging and powerful. She draws you in. You will be shocked and dumbfounded to learn what is really going on in our schools and our culture.

In a time of cultural chaos and confusion, the Truth and Love seminar will equip your church to navigate the choppy waters of sexuality and gender from a historic and conservative Biblical perspective. Bethany does a fantastic job of taking a complex issue and making it both understandable and actionable in real life scenarios. It is well researched, grace filled, and everyone will walk away with a resource guide that is absolute gold!

Christian Common Ground

Here’s a brief list of things that I’m assuming we have in common as Christians when I share the seminar in churches. None of the following should be political, radical, or divisive for the Christian. Every belief statement below is founded in Scripture and has been foundational within orthodox Christianity since the very beginning. Respectfully, if your church body doesn’t align with the following statements, then we may not be a good fit.

I’m always happy to talk further using the inquiry form above!
