RAISE THEM TO VALUE GOD’S DESIGN

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton and Hillary Morgan Ferrer discuss her recent book, "Mama Bear Apologetics Guide to Sexuality." Our culture has redefined the word love to mean approval of every imaginable sexual sin. By twisting the Creator’s design in order to satisfy sinful, physical desires, Satan attacks our God-given identity. What does it mean to be human? What is sin? And Who is God? Dr. Clinton and Hillary address these questions and more, and encourage parents to educate themselves and empower their children to challenge cultural lies about sexuality. About Today's Guest: Hillary Morgan Ferrer Hillary Morgan Ferrer is the founder and CEO of Mama Bear Apologetics. She is also chief author and editor of the best-selling "Mama Bear Apologetics: Empowering Your Kids to Challenge Cultural Lies," and "Mama Bear Apologetics Guide to Sexuality: Empowering Your Kids to Understand and Live Out God’s Design."

Our kids are increasingly on the front lines when it comes to the battle for a biblical view of sexuality. On the latest episode of Unapologetic, Julia invites Hillary Ferrer—founder of Mama Bear Apologetics—to the show to speak into the fight against transgenderism, how to train our kids up to stand firm, and why we as parents need to be the first ones to teach our kids about sexuality. These are hot-button topics in today’s day and age, but they’re issues we don’t need to apologize for and can’t shy away from if we want to win the battle for our kids’ identities. Throughout their conversation, Julia and Hillary dig into why some Christians seem to be confused about how to address transgenderism, the pressure to normalize behaviors that are clearly unbiblical, and how not to live by lies. Hillary wraps up the episode by encouraging moms and dads who are scared to raise kids in today’s culture—reminding them that the only sphere of influence they’re responsible for is their family, not controlling what everyone else believes.

oday’s guest, Monica Cline, used to work for Planned Parenthood as a comprehensive sex educator. She is the founder of the organization, It Takes a Family, which educates parents so that they are the leading voice for their children. In today’s episode, she’s talking about what her involvement in Planned Parent looked like and what she taught. She also reflects on things she learned and how she uses her experiences to help parents today. MAIN POINTS COVERED: Falling for Lies What Monica does today with It Takes a Family was inspired by the training she received from Planned Parenthood (PP). It Started with Compassion Monica started her career in public health working for an organization in Austin that served marginalized populations at high risk of HIV/AIDS. Sex Positivity (see chapter 8 of MBA Guide to Biblical Sexuality) Monica was trained by PP. The director of sex education, her mentor, told her about extreme cases coming into the clinic. As young as 10 years old. Teaching Children About Sex, the PP Way Break down their inhibitions with an ice breaker so they’ll be more open to talking about sex. The training would also include role-playing certain scenarios with children. This was to encourage their “condom negotiation skills.” How this Impacts the Abortion Industry If we look at PP’s budget, the first line item of most money spent is surgical procedures (abortion), and the second line item is sex education. Monica’s A-Ha Moments The first a-ha moment was when PP sent her to teach 13-14-year-old girls and boys at an alternative school in Austin. Monica as a Mama Bear She had a baby, but now she is the sex education director at her organization. The church should be speaking into these communities. Her compassion today is based on God’s truth rather than a lie. As Christians, we need to be there for the orphan and the widow. What are we doing to help parents? We need to be there for them. We need to give grace to our children, too. QUOTABLE QUOTES: “Whether it is just mom or dad at home with the children, you are still that leading voice in your child’s life. Our children look to their parents for that guidance.” -Monica #sexeducation #discipleship “Your children need to be able to come to you and know that you have an answer for them.” -Monica “Sex positivity says that no [sexual] decision is unhealthy unless it doesn’t bring pleasure or it’s not consensual.” -Hillary “Children are naturally inhibited, and that’s a good thing.” -Monica “Sex education is a marketing tool used by Planned Parenthood that feeds into abortion.” -Monica NEW VOCABULARY: Sex positivity: the idea that you can’t judge anyone else’s sexual decisions, no matter what they are because to do so would be sex-negative. Children have a right to pleasure as long as it’s consensual. Read more in Chapter 8 of the Mama Bear Guide to Biblical Sexuality.
