With Pride Month right around the corner, it's important for Christian parents to be prepared to engage with their kids on this topic.

Many parents avoid this conversation altogether or hope their kids won't notice - but is that really the approach we should take as we equip our children to live as salt and light in Babylon? They need more than our hopes that they will go one more year without asking hard questions about all the rainbows they are seeing.

In this episode, I share the structure for the conversation and break it down in a way that will help you not dread this conversation with your kids, and dare I say even enjoy it as you get to share the beauty of God's design and truth with them.

I break this down for ages 3-18 and will share tips that help you adapt it to your children.

KEY SCRIPTURES

Genesis 1:27 tells us God made humans male and female.

Prov. 14:12 tells us that a way seems right to man but the end is death.

Romans 1:18-38 gives a vivid picture of humankind refusing to acknowledge God and giving him proper glory. 

Throughout the Old Testament in places like Leviticus 18, Leviticus 20, Genesis, and later on in Judges, but also in the New Testament in Romans 1, 1 Corinthians 6, and 1 Timothy 1, it is made very clear that homosexual activity is sinful.

In 1 Corinthians 6 and 1 Timothy 1, Paul lists homosexual activity along with numerous other sins: revelry, drunkenness, and all sorts of other sins, some of which are minor, some major; some less significant, some more significant; some even heinous sins. In Romans 1, however, Paul identifies homosexual sin as a more heinous sin, being that it is contrary to nature.
