Always Ready: Sanford 2025 Conference

In this panel discussion from Always Ready, Ligonier’s apologetics conference for middle and high school students, Eric Bancroft, Nathan W. Bingham, and Stephen Nichols tackle the complex topic of sexuality and identity, seeking to bring biblical clarity to the conversation. They explore how our understanding of the image of God informs our views on sexuality, gender, and relationships, and how we can hold fast to these convictions while engaging with others who need the truth.

Questions:

1. What are the foundational truths in Genesis that help us understand gender and sexuality? (1:43)
2. How have foundational biblical truths about gender and sexuality become so distorted in the United States and the Western world? (8:14)
3. How can Christians exercise control over their own bodies? (11:54)
4. Is there forgiveness for a Christian who has fallen into sexual sin? (18:39)
5. How can Christians evangelize members of the LGBTQ community? (27:26)
