Teach Them Diligently

How to Talk to Your Kids About Sexuality and Gender—Biblically and With Confidence


Listen Later

This episode is meant for parents only — not little ears — but it will equip you to disciple your children well in a world eager to shape their views on identity and truth.

In this deeply important and sensitive episode, Leslie Nunnery sits down with Elizabeth Urbanowicz of Foundation Worldview to discuss her new book, Helping Your Kids Know God’s Good Design: 40 Questions and Answers on Sexuality and Gender. Together, they tackle how parents can begin biblical conversations about sexuality, gender, and God’s design — even from a young age — in a way that is proactive, confident, and full of grace.

Elizabeth walks through how to approach these topics with your children from age four and up, giving real examples and simple language to use in your home. Leslie adds wisdom from her experience as a mom of grown children, offering perspective on why these conversations matter now more than ever.

Topics Covered In This Episode:

  • Why conversations about God’s design can’t wait until the teen years
  • How to begin age-appropriate talks about body, sex, and reproduction
  • Practical phrases and examples for your first discussions
  • Why proactive discipleship is essential in a culture that wants to disciple your kids first
