The transgender movement is based on a destructive ideology that has affected every adult and minor in every sector of American society. Our churches and communities need to understand how to address the spiritual and psychological crisis behind gender ideology. This book was written by Jennifer Bauwens, a trauma therapist and researcher, and Walt Heyer, who previously identified as a woman. Both authors have helped those who suffered the effects of gender ideology and who also had traumas and other mental health conditions. The authors developed this resource to bring understanding about the origins of the gender movement, the psychological research used to give the appearance that the practices are evidence-based, and most importantly, how to both prevent someone struggling with identity confusion and how to support someone who wants to come back to God's design for their life after identifying as transgender.
