Great podcast. Better understanding of the issue.

Well done. As a transgender minister, I greatly appreciate people who open the conversation around such topics. Transgender people have always existed and we always will. And it's my belief that Jesus not only encountered transgender folks, but he showed them love. Some Christians want to view us as the new Samaritans, untouchable and despised. But it's better to open the doors and let the gifts of God be seen and used according to his or her ability than to close out entire populations. Isn't that the premise of Jesus' teaching? That the shunned and outsiders are the beloved of God? Thanks for your podcast.
