Biblical Sexuality: Embracing Christ Over Culture
March 19, 2023 @ 3:00 pm
FreeAs more confusion abounds on sexuality and gender, Dr. Christopher Yuan powerfully articulates that God’s truth is crystal clear not gray. Through the narrative of his personal transformation from an agnostic gay man to a Bible professor and through his graduate level education in biblical languages, theology, and even health sciences, Dr. Yuan casts a compelling vision of not embracing our sexuality, but embracing Christ, thus shattering the paradigms of gay and straight and pointing us toward the biblical standard of holy sexuality.
Join us for this equipping event from Fellowship Church’s Truth & Worldview Initiative and find encouragement, hope, and direction from God’s Word on the cultural issues of our time.

Event Schedule
3:00 PM | Welcome & Main Session • Sexual Identity: False Identity with Christopher Yuan
One of the most important things missed when engaging with our LGB friends is how sexuality has become the core of our being. “Being gay” means “This is who I am.” But if this is incorrect, how does the Bible communicate who we are? Dr. Yuan articulates the correct understanding of personhood through the lens of Scripture—particularly, the image of God and the doctrine of sin—and explains the consequences of an incorrect understanding of who we are.

He Made Them Male and Female: Sex, Gender, and the Image of God with Christopher Yuan

Ordinary Parents, Extraordinary Father with Angela Yuan
Parents often have nowhere to turn when prodigals break their hearts. What will help their child? And what will help parents to persevere? Having survived the difficult years with their own prodigal son, Angela Yuan has learned from her own personal experience and share via video practical steps on what helped them through the prodigal years—which can benefit any parent of any child of any age.
5:10 PM | Main Session • Holy Sexuality and the Gospel with Christopher Yuan
We all know someone who identifies as gay, lesbian, or bisexual. How can Christians better share Jesus with our loved ones and friends in the LGB community? What have we gotten wrong? How can we improve? Without any compromise of truth or grace, Dr. Christopher Yuan combines his life experiences and his theological and biblical language background to teach a fully gospel-centric approach. This will help us to think right (orthodoxy) before doing right (orthopraxy).
