Beautiful truths about human sexuality and our identity as God's sons and daughters are taught by the Catholic Church, lessons that encourage human flourishing. Nonetheless, gender activists and their government and media friends condemn the Church's teaching of love as damaging and divisive. How do Catholics react to such criticism?

In this timely and incisive book, John Bursch explains what the Catholic Church teaches about the human person and why modern culture's embrace of "gender ideology" is not only wrong but also dangerous for parents and families, female athletes, medical professionals, and especially those experiencing gender confusion. Bursch discusses various concerns that Catholics face in a society that encourages gender fluidity, drawing on Church texts and significant scientific research. He discusses a variety of themes, including how to address the usage of pronouns in the workplace, whether transgender people may receive the sacraments, and how to support those experiencing gender confusion.

You will also learn:

What is the concept of objective truth and how to defend it
The Church’s understanding of what it means to truly love another individual
Straightforward reasons to defend the Church’s teaching on human sexuality
What scientific inquiry really says about gender ideology
The true meaning of human identity
How gender activists subvert the truth in culture and in the medical profession
How acceptance and affirmation of those who announce a gender identity different from their sex is not loving but harmful

Significantly, you will learn how to cultivate virtue and courage in order to face the increasing persecution of those who promote and defend the Church's teachings, as well as how to respond to practical questions with factual information and authentic spiritual guidance from the pope and Catholic bishops.

Endorsements:

This is to date, the most comprehensive popular treatment available of the Catholic position on gender ideology. John Bursch has provided an excellent guidebook not only for clergy, teachers, medical specialists, and politicians, but also for the average Catholic who is increasingly pressured to conform to the medically, psychologically, and spiritually damaging popular cultural agenda.

Fr. Robert Spitzer

Going from a brief and sophisticated overview of anthropology and philosophy right on to the down-to-earth reality pastors, educators, counsellors and parents must confront on transgender issues, this book will prove to be an indispensable resource.

Fr. Robert Sirico

We all need to know how to respond with rational love to the madness of gender ideology. This book shows us how to do this. For this reason alone, it should be on every good Catholic’s reading list.

Joseph Pearce

The transgender movement has dramatically affected every facet of American life – and Catholics are looking to make sense of it all. I can’t think of a wiser guide for that task than attorney-author John Bursch.

Mary Hasson

Many faithful Catholics have a difficult time both understanding and articulating the Church’s teachings about the difficult moral and cultural issues of our time. Because they lack confidence and because they fear being cancelled or accused of bigotry they remain silent even with members of their own families.
