Chapter 4: What signs indicate a cultural shift regarding LGBTQ issues?
It's brought to you by our friends at Range Leather, October 10th, Dallas, Texas. Can't wait to see you there. All right. Well, I've got some news to start off this Monday episode. Maybe some of you have already heard this. Maybe you haven't, but God's eternal plan of redemption is going off without a hitch. Now, today marks the beginning of what some may refer to as Pride Month.
And this is a month where those who call themselves LGBTQ celebrate their sexuality, and that sexuality is conflated with identity. And so today we will look at where the movement is for America, for worse in some ways, but also for better in other ways, so that we Christians can know how to pray, how to minister, how to speak, how to shine light in the darkness.
Now for Christians, we celebrate today like we do every day. This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Chapter 5: How are Christians responding to the challenges of LGBTQ activism?
And when we think of pride, we don't think of pride month. We don't think pride and sexual so-called identity. We think of the vice that comes before failure. When we look to the rainbow, we think of God's promise to Noah and to the whole world that never will he flood the earth again and that he's faithful to keep his promises.
When we think of love, we don't follow it up with some kind of circular, meaningless mantra is love. We think of that which is never prideful and never boast, never rejoice in wrong and is always patient and is always kind. We think of God who tells us that he is love, 1 John 4, 8, and therefore he alone has the authority to define it.
And when we see this acronym, LGBTQ, we don't see sexual identities to celebrate. We see image bearers of God who are pursuing what is right in their own eyes to the detriment of their bodies and souls. We see people who are lost as we were all once lost, deceived as we were all once deceived, and who need the kind of love that points toward Jesus and his truth.
We think of Jesus's words in Matthew 19, four through five, which say that God made us male and female in the beginning. So that a man will leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife and the two will become one flesh. We remember that we're not nicer than God. So if God says something is good, he says it out of love. If he says something is sin, he says so out of love.
If he is love, we can't out love him. We can't out-mercy him. We can't out-wisdom him. We can't out-compassion him. In fact, the most loving thing we can always do is agree with God. And God calls homosexuality and the denial of our God-given sex sin and deception. And he calls the creation of male and female in his image very good.
And he exclusively designates his holy marriage between one man and one woman. Now, if you've been listening since maybe all the way back in 2000, I believe it was 18 or 19 that we first talked about this acronym. This will be familiar, but it bears repeating. Marriage between one man and one woman is rooted in creation. That's Genesis one 27. It's reiterated throughout scripture.
Honor your father and mother. That's one example. Repeated by Jesus, Matthew 19, four through five representative of Christ and the church. That's incredible. Ephesians five and is therefore reflective of the gospel. So rooted, reiterated, repeated representative and reflective. So, um, When people say that the Bible doesn't really mean homosexuality, it's not really talking about that.
Jesus doesn't really talk about that. There are all kinds of ways that we can try to finagle ourselves into justifying sin by making an argument from absence. First, it's not true. The Bible does talk about these things in the negative sense, but we also read the Bible asking, but what does God define positively? Not just what does God call sin, but what does he call good?
And if we love God, we're not just trying to get away with things. We want to glorify him. Then we are trying to align ourselves in our lives as closely to what he calls holy as we possibly can. The Bible starts with the marriage between Adam and Eve ends with a marriage between the bridegroom and the bride. These are gender specific designations that have eternal significance.

Chapter 6: What biblical principles guide the conversation on pride and redemption?
We know that his eternal plan of redemption is going off without a hitch. He's going to gather his church. The gates of hell will not prevail against his church. And yet we have a purpose here to do the next right thing in faith with excellence and for the glory of God, to make this small plot of the earth, this tiny spot of eternity, more like the kingdom of heaven.
better a better place for our neighbors for the glory of god okay there's lots of ways to do that obviously we share the gospel but we also for the sake of our neighbors for the sake of the truth push back against the darkness so let's dive into that darkness but also see what are christians up to and pushing back against this so we'll get into that in just a second let me pause tell you about our first sponsor for the day it's fellowship home loans now when was the last time that you and your husband went on a vacation was it your honeymoon
just the two of you. I'm not talking about like a work trip. I'm not talking about a trip with your kids, although that's super fun, but no responsibilities, no grocery lists, just being able to relax. It's probably been a while. Here's the thing. Marriage is the most important investment that you'll ever make.
And somewhere between mortgage payments and the school drop-offs, a lot of couples stop investing in it. What if your house could help you start again? It's called the Second Honeymoon Loan.

So we as a team decided to dig into, is all of this stuff just kind of dead? Is it gone? We felt for a while that woke had been defeated.
I think a lot of people felt like it was impossible for Donald Trump to win. Then he won after the craziness of 2020. It felt like for a while that progressivism absolutely was going to dominate, but then we had some really big wins and and pushing back against all of it as Christian conservatives. And it was like, okay, these companies seem to be backing up.
Well, I have some bad news before I get to the good news. A lot of these places are not backing down at all. In fact, they're doubling down on this. If we look to the city of Boston, this is where we found some of just the most atrocious and ridiculous things. I mean, some of these things are just absurd and we had to include them just so you know that like sin induces insanity too.
If we look at the Boston, uh, public library, it's hosting 19 drag queen storytime events. I had to double check that 19 drag queen storytime events for children during pride month. So we've got a picture right here. This is the advertisement Boston public library, specifically for kids drag queen story. Our time with miss Patty suitable for children, 18 months to five years old.

Chapter 7: How do recent state laws reflect changing public opinion on LGBTQ rights?
Okay. You see it. You see the advertisement. I'm like trans period. Surely we're talking about like the trans era, like the trans like period of time. No, we're talking about menstruation. No, we need to put back up the picture so everyone can see. what this is. This is an event to discuss menstrual equity and the experiences of transgender menstruators.
Now that might've just put your brain in a pretzel because we're like, who are we talking about? We're talking about women who identify as men still have their uterus and their eggs. And so they're having periods, I suppose. Okay. I don't know why they need to be spoken to about tampons and things like that?
Or are we talking about the men that I've seen on social media who claim because of the synthetic hormones that they're taking to try to look more like women, that they have some kind of menstrual cycle, even though you don't have a uterus or eggs or any ability to menstruate. I don't know. I bet you're probably going to get a mixed bag.
So it says join mass now in the MA trans political coalition for a consciousness raising discussion of menstrual equity and the experiences of trans menstruator. So I guess it's men who no, no. women who identify as men. And don't worry, you get free period underwear provided to all attendees. It's funny, but it's sad.
It's actually really sad, like what these women go through to try to change their bodies and not be a woman. I think that most women who identify as men, they went through some sort of trauma, some sort of sexual trauma. They're trying to run away from that with their bodies. And it's very sad.
Last month, Mayor Wu unveiled a program that provides vouchers for self-care and mental health services to LGBTQ migrants. Specifically, the priority is for low-income trans and isolated LGBTQ plus migrants in Boston. Now, how many transgender people are headed here from Nigeria? I don't know. I assume that the number is going to increase though.
Once you realize that you can get free stuff, if you start identifying as a low income, isolated queer and trans migrant asylum seeker and refugee. Okay. This is all funded by the taxpayers in Boston. I just want to remind you of that. As of this month, the city faces a budget deficit of nearly $50 million. Okay. But sorry, the transgender people need their period underwear.
The queer asylum seekers need their yoga classes, okay? So fork over your money, truck driver. This June, we also see that stores are still offering pride. So there was that huge backlash against Target. You'll remember that because they went absolutely wild. They were like, they also felt, I think the left also felt, we have won forever and ever, okay?
And they decided to sell things like, I don't even want to explain it, but this is what they were selling. And even marketing some of this stuff to children, packing underwear. Okay. So if you're a woman who identifies as a man, uh, compression tops, if you're a woman who identifies as a man, um, tucking, uh, like swimsuits, if you're a man who identifies as a woman, it's so ridiculous.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of IVF and parenting decisions in modern families?
Also, there's an elementary school in New Jersey that's hosting Pride on the Playground. an event for children on school grounds and promoting it on the website. Also very strange, very weird. Celebrate diversity, inclusion, and community together. I think that these pride events that are targeting kids, it's just strange.
Back in September, you might remember, there was a boycott movement against Netflix. There've been a few over the years when X users started posting clips from multiple children's shows on Netflix that were platforming gay and trans characters without telling you that, by the way, they're G-rated and you don't know, but they're calling people they, them, calling women he, him, things like that.
Here's an example. This is from a supposedly a children's show called Dead End Paranormal Parks, that one.
It's not the park. It's... it's me. I'm trans, Norma. And everyone at school knows, and everyone at home knows. And being here, it's like... a whole new place. I can just be Barney, and I can choose if and when I tell people. I've never been happier. And that's saying something when I spent today chased by terrifying zombie mascots.
Pugsley reminded me how important it is to live your life without apology. So, I think I gotta give living here a shot. Don't you? You don't need my permission.
So sad. It's so sad fostering that kind of confusion for kids. There's also Ada Twist, Scientists and Friends. It's got a gay wedding in there. Jurassic World, Camp Cretaceous features that. And then you have Cocomelon Lane has gay dads singing to their son who is dancing in a dress. Very subversive. And again, I just think... Sad.
Now, Elon Musk called his 230 plus million followers on X to cancel their subscriptions. Now, I do believe that Elon Musk actually believes that he also has beef with the guy who runs Netflix or started Netflix. So that's probably a part of what's going on there. But we definitely have to be extremely vigilant in what we are allowing our kids to consume.
You can't just assume that because it's rated G or because it's Cocomelon or because it's Paw Patrol or because it's any of these things that it's going to be fine, that it's going to be innocuous. Like if you're going to allow your child to watch something, you should at least say, look, you're not going to watch that one unless I watch it. That's the most important thing.
But also you could be like, we're not going to watch things after 2017 because Things got really, really weird after that, and we just can't trust it. So how did this really start? I mean, how did we go from, okay, we just want these partners to be able to visit each other at the hospital to now pushing drag queens and transgenderism on little kids, on toddlers?
