"The Bible in Today's World" - Transgenderism, Part 1 - Ep.19

Published: Oct. 29, 2023, noon

Welcome to "The Bible in Today's World", the show that compares today's world with the Word of God.

\n\n

In general and specifically, are we following the Bible in our daily walks? Is society demanding that we follow the Word of God in all that we do?

\n\n

Does our Almighty Father look upon us and frequently say, "Well done, good and faithful servant!" - or is He thinking of us as He thought/thinks of Sodom and Gomorrah?

\n\n

On today;'s show, we will explore "Transgenderism".

\n\n

We will also play Part 1 of my interview with Author/Attorney/Fostering Mom/ and a Believer in Jesus Christ, DEBBIE AUSBURN.

\n\n

\ufeffDEBBIE AUSBURN, a former teacher, then social worker, and now an attorney from the Atlanta area, will join us to discuss all that she has done in the world of foster parenting and stepchildren.

FROM HER WEBSITE:

\n\n

I make my living as a lawyer, but what I\xa0do\xa0is take care of other people\u2019s children. For more than 40 years, I have been working with traumatized children, starting when I was a preteen helping my parents with their summer camp and church ministries.\xa0In the years since, I have served as a juvenile court probation officer/social worker, group home parent, criminal prosecutor, non-profit volunteer and Board member, and attorney defending youth-serving organizations.\xa0

\n\n

\u200dMy most important roles have been foster parent and stepparent. I never had biological children, but I have managed to collect 7 children and 10 grandchildren. Along the way, my foster children, stepchildren, and grandchildren have taught me the life lessons that are the core of my speaking and writing \u2014 the lessons that I wish I could have learned from a parenting manual rather than trial and error.

\n\n

Parenting other people\u2019s children has been the greatest challenge and the greatest joy of my life. I have made many mistakes, but I cannot imagine my life without them. Most important, I know that if I can do it, anyone can.

\n\n

I never intended to help raise so many children. I started in social work, burned out, and went to law school. I did not fall in love until my 40s, when I finally married. In the interim, I channeled my social worker passion into volunteering with youth organizations and fostering abused children and teenagers. I deliberately never kept count of how many children I fostered in short-term placements, but two teenage girls stayed with me long-term and became part of my family.
