Episode Details

Have you noticed an anti-Christian agenda swooping into our schools, libraries, media, and government institutions? When even the Muppets and Kellogg's Cereal boxes tell your young children they can be any gender they feel like, parents need strategies.

Joan Benson wrote THE book on how parents can respond to their children when they ask uncomfortable questions.

Joan was my guest on Never Ever Give Up Hope last year. Click here to enjoy her story of love lost, betrayal, and new-found joy.

Joan Benson adopted two infants and two twelve-year-olds to complete what she hoped would be a loving permanent family.

Joan is a wife, mother of four adult children, a grandmother of eight, a former educator, and an author/speaker. She has been a freelance writer for over thirty years and has served as a reading specialist, teacher mentor, and classroom teacher in her first career.

After retiring from her educational life, she pursued her love for writing with the freedom to share her spiritual insights. Previously, she has been published in multiple Christian magazines including LifeWay's "ParentLife" and Regent University's "The Christian Leader."

Some of her devotional writings have been published on CBN.com. Joan wrote for LifeWay Publishing's Children's Ministry for twelve years. Her debut historical fiction novel, His Gift, was published in 2020. She has recently co-authored four children's books with Marjorie Wingert.

Her awareness broadened when she watched the trend of an anti-Christian agenda forcing its way into our education system.

Textbooks are now being written with gay and transgender characters for young elementary readers. This presents a gay and transgender lifestyle as "normal" without an opportunity for parental input.

We CANNOT afford to wait until children are old enough to talk about these concepts or the cultural ideologies will indoctrinate them first. We can teach children to treat each other with kindness without indoctrinating them into gender confusion.
