Talking to Kids about Gender Identity

World Religions

“The calm, compassionate, and careful tone of Yarhouse will lessen parents’ heightened anxiety and fear around gender identity, As will his practical advice based in both faith and clinical experience. Parents will be relieved to find themselves saying, ‘We can do this,’ as they anticipate these conversations with their children.”

When Children Come Out

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“This is the very book I've wished I had on my bookshelf every time a Christian parent reaches out to me after their child comes out to them. In these pages, they hear their own story—what has been, what is, and what might yet unfold—and they see that they are neither alone nor way off mark in walking this journey with their child, with God, and with their church. Yarhouse and Zaporozhets provide grounding, empathy, and hope for parents as well as insight and direction for pastors and churches who want to minister to them.”
