Title: Do You Have a Christ-like Attitude?
Topic: Christianity: Why Your Action Matters
Discussed by Dr. Alan Branch
with Dr. Alan Branch (www.alanbranchethics.com)
Part 1 of 3
Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed may be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.
The LGBTQ debate is here to stay and heating up. Holding a biblical conviction means that individuals will find themselves in disagreements with friends, family, and co-workers. Many will be accused of bigotry – or worse.
At a time like this, Christians need to be equipped to defend a true vision for human flourishing. Dr. Alan Branch wants to equip you with that knowledge! Today he will be discussing his new book, “Affirming God's Image: Addressing the Transgender Question with Science and Scripture”. https://www.amazon.com/Affirming-Gods-Image-Addressing-Transgender/dp/168359276X Dr. Branch is the Professor of Christian Ethics at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City.

How does Jesus challenge us to show compassion to every person that enters our churches, regardless of who they are?

Questions/Issues Discussed:
Spoiler Alert: Churches are full of sinners! But… Where and how do we draw the

well as lust, fornication, and adultery?
Are you turning the other cheek and loving your enemies?
