The Bible and the Transgender Experience: How Scripture Supports Gender Variance

Linda Tatro Herzer, 2016 (format: book)

The author, a nontransgender pastor, spent three years serving a church where ten percent of the congregation identified as trans men, trans women, cross-dressers, or genderqueer. This motivated her to learn about gender variant people and put her in situations where her previous understanding of the Bible was greatly expanded.

In this scholarly yet easy-to-read book Herzer gives clear, insightful accounts of what she has learned.

The Bible and the Transgender Experience includes practical suggestions from the author on how to make your congregation or group trans friendly. Don’t miss the discussion guide that can be used with a book group or as part of a four- to five-week Bible study.
