This week’s episode picks up on our last conversation with paediatrician Julie Maxwell from 2023, and in particular the sweeping changes made to how gender-questioning children are treated in Britain in the last year. A weighty official report by an eminent doctor concluded that the NHS’s sole clinic for gender medicine should be shut down and the practice of treating young people with puberty-blocking medication abandoned entirely. We talk through the implications of the Cass Report, whether a return to evidence-based medicine instead of political ideology is really breaking out, and what the situation is in the education system, where culture wars over trans children continue to rage. How on earth can Christian parents navigate this fast-changing and very divisive issue with compassion and faithfulness?
