Today, a beautiful episode focused on Moms.

Mother’s Day will come and go. Maybe you’ll do brunch with family, get a call from the kids, maybe open a card or a present. Or not.

If you get a card, it is quite likely that reading those words of appreciation will bring simultaneous joy and guilt!

Seems to be the nature of motherhood.

Sit with me… I would like to talk with you today as a Mom.

With all that has been going on to attack, condemn, and erase our precious transgender community, we thought it was the perfect time for this.

In this very special, intimate episode, we share something that came from a mom of transgender daughter.

She wrote it for her pastor, for anyone, who is trying to sort out transgender, gender nonconforming, nonbinary—trying to understand what transgender people and their families go through.

This is an incredibly powerful story. It is beautifully written and conveys so well the heart of what it is to parent a transgender child.

An encore presentation, perfect for all that is happening today.

Today, we continue to focus on the transgender community with an encore broadcast of a very popular FreedHearts Podcast episode from January 2022.

Our trans children, family members and friends are beautiful. And beloved. Living their authentic lives.

Oh my goodness, that is an amazing truth. Amazing stories. Amazing beauty.

False teachings, binary thinking, denial can cause us to miss it all – and cause great harm to those we love.

With all that has been going on, it is the perfect time for this episode. “Don’t Deny the Beauty of Being Transgender!”

Christians mistakenly suggest that if you take the Bible seriously, you must stand against the existence – as well as the health and even humanity of transgender people.

Actually, the OPPOSITE is true!

In this episode, we talk about how the Bible AFFIRMS transgender and gender non-conforming people. And, how misinterpretations and binary thinking cause people to follow false teachings that are causing so much harm, especially today!

A special encore presentation of one of our most popular episodes ever about the transgender community.

These past few months have resulted in some deep wounds – often from people that are, or used to be very close to us. We have been told that we should not hold a grudge, that we should let go of everything. But I think we are missing a bigger truth. Could it be that it’s good to hold a grudge?

We don’t want to walk around with resentment, or unforgiveness, because that only hurts us, as we know. So, how could holding a grudge be a positive thing?

Maybe it’s about remembering what someone did to you, or did to someone you love—versus pretending nothing happened. For the purpose of protecting yourself in the future. The idea is that you don’t just forget harmful things people do.

Beloved, there’s deep wisdom in that. There is a real balance in all of this and in today’s powerful episode, we talk all about it.

Jesus and Christianity and Church. We link those three together but the truth is that to do so has no basis in history, no basis in theology, certainly no basis in today’s non-affirming, rules-based, behavior-focused, hyper-political religion.

Jesus is a great mascot. But Beloved, it’s a bait and switch!

Jesus would be considered unChristian by the Christian church. And the church would be considered unChristlike by Jesus.

We get caught up in social media. Doomscrolling, fear scrolling, just scrolling to find a glimmer of hope and good news.

We all know the feeling: you see something infuriating and, before you can stop yourself, you’re pounding the keys, firing off a post that will change the world, or at least change someone’s mind.

Anyone else do that?

But, honestly, here’s the thing: posting on social media probably won’t change things as much as we hope.

So, why doesn’t it work, and what can we do instead?

On this deconstruction journey, we have unclobbered the Scripture that is falsely taught to condemn LGBTQ+ and same-sex relationships.

We have exposed false teachings that are used for religious manipulation.

And we recently addressed the big one: the myth and false teaching of hell!

It’s a lot, and it rattles the core of our theology – but in the most wonderful way. We opened the box we had God in and all heaven broke loose!

Beloved, have you ever wondered… Are we sure?? Can we be certain about our beliefs?
