Gender Lie | Summit Ministries

Uncover the lies they’ve told you and protect your family.

This book is a crash course on a thoroughly bewildering subject. As you engage this in-depth ebook, we hope you will be equipped to address these tough and thorny themes with compassion for struggling people and with the uncompromised conviction that the truth must be proclaimed and defended.

We will tackle why transgenderism is a medical (and social) scandal, discuss the history of gender ideology, show how this ideology twists language and distorts reality, and explore what a healthy and flourishing vision for human sexuality looks like.

“Most Americans are stunned by the rapid rise of a multi-billion dollar transgender industry which specifically targets children and teens. While it seems to have arisen overnight, it’s actually a long-term strategy that has been underway for years. A child struggling with identity is nothing new, but what is new is the highly-coordinated effort to convince children that something is fundamentally wrong with them, and that changing gender is the answer.”
