41. The Bible As Balm for Gender Expansive Christians with Austen Hartke (S3 E4)

In this episode, I talked with Austen Hartke. Austen is the author of Transforming: The Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians, the founder and director of Transmission Ministry Collective, and the creator of one hundred videos for the Transgender and Christian YouTube series. Austen explained how the bible can be a balm for gender expansive Christians. Austen is a returning guest, and you can listen to his episode titled "The Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians" from season 2 if you haven't already.
