Exposing the Gender Lie
May 09, 2023"Are you ashamed of the gospel?" That's what Brandon Showalter heard God say as he pondered his task of reporting on gender therapy for the Christian Post. He had only recently been employed as a journalist and was new to the industry. He had every reason to say 'no'. But in that instant he knew he could not step back in fear but instead step forward in faith.
Listen to Brendon's story of hearing God while cleaning the bathrooms at Bethel School of Ministry, through to interviewing parents, detransitioners and medical professionals as he stumbled into the dark, $1.9B industry of gender reassignment surgery.
How did he stay strong and focused? Was he afraid? What are the results?
God can use anyone! What about you?
