January Littlejohn is a Christian mother living in Florida. She is currently working to educate the American public and the church about gender ideology and the implications such beliefs have for our children. She herself was impacted by this ideology when her own daughter began to believe that she was actually male. The school system, rather than helping Mrs. Littlejohn, worked against her.

In this conversation, January tells her family's story, and together we try to wrap our minds around the reality of our present situation as a society. What is the role for the church in all this? How should pastors and other Christian leaders be talking about it? How can local churches and denominations work against this deluge of ungodly propaganda?
