From Transgender to Transformed

We regularly hear from parents who are struggling with hurt and fear when their child embraces a new gender.  Laura Smalts was that child.  She believed the lies and the false promises of freedom – until she discovered true freedom in the love of Jesus Christ! Laura will share her story and offer insights about how to relate well to loved ones living a transgender life!
