In The Body God Gives: A Biblical Response to Transgender Theory, Robert S. Smith argues that God intends a person’s gender to be grounded in the reality of his or her biological sex—the body God has given. In making his case, Smith critiques the central claim of transgender theory—that the sexed body does not determine the gendered self. He also evaluates the shifts in how society thinks and talks about sex and gender, responding with biblical clarity, theological conviction, and Christian compassion. God speaks clearly, both in his word and in his world.
