MinistryWatch Podcast Ep. 540: Elizabeth Urbanowicz on God’s Good Design for Sexuality and Gender
We live in a polarized world today, and one of the hallmarks of that polarization is the tendency to fight what we are against. That’s sometimes necessary, of course. But often fighting what we are against distracts us from clearly understanding and simply saying what we are for.
That tendency shows up in our conversations about gender and sexuality. We are pretty good, or at least pretty loud, at saying what we are against, but not as effective at articulating a coherent vision of gender and sexuality that is not merely combative, but also convincing.
Elizabeth Urbanowicz understands that our children are watching, and that’s one of the reasons I found her book Helping Your Kids Know God’s Good Design to be so helpful. It’s a book designed for parents – and grandparents – who want to speak into the lives of their children and grandchildren in formative, constructive ways. This book is not a bunch of do’s and don’t’s, but is full of how’s and why’s.
I’ve got to confess that I’ve been a fan of Elizabeth Urbanowicz for a few years now. I first met her when I was at the Colson Center. That was probably seven or eight years ago. Her small business, Foundation Worldview, has grown steadily over the past few years, providing curriculum material for Christian schools and homeschoolers. She has a lot of videos and other resources online, and I recommend them to you.
We had this conversation via zoom. She spoke to me from her home in Georgia.
The producer for today’s program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.
