“We have an enemy” is his first explanation for how children come to believe lies about gender.

1. The Journey Parent Podcast focuses on Netflix, gender identity, and biblical sexuality. 2. Ricky Shillette appears as an expert from the Institute of Biblical Sexuality, and the hosts position him as the source for parental guidance on these topics. 3. The episode asks how parents should understand gender identity when schools, media, and culture push a non-biblical framework. 4. The conversation opens with WPATH, England, and Europe, then references a claim that young people have endured surgeries and body transformations without understanding the implications. 5. Shillette says the deepest explanation is that “we have an enemy” and calls the devil “the great deceiver.” 6. He connects that deception to isolation, online affirmation, and young people seeking belonging outside family, church, and community. 7. The hosts discuss state laws that prevent teachers or nurses from telling parents when a student changes a name or pronouns at school. 8. Shillette contrasts that with the older school culture where parents, principals, and teachers were all closely involved. 9. He says adults were trained to be friends to children instead of mentors or leaders, and he ties that to fear of cancel culture and job loss. 10. He describes corporate pressure during June pride observances, including required LGBTQ paraphernalia at desks. 11. The episode turns to the 1992 Casey decision, which the hosts read as language about defining one’s own meaning of existence. 12. They connect that legal logic to abortion, gender self-definition, and the idea that feelings became facts and then laws. 13. Shillette also says the future may include transhuman realities, AI embedded in personhood, and relationships with chatbots. 14. He gives examples of a woman married to an AI image and another person forming an amorous bond with ChatGPT. 15. The hosts then discuss pornography, OnlyFans, and the way digital relationships can be commodified and controlled. 16. Shillette says that in a real relationship a person can reject you, but a computer interaction can be disconnected and unplugged. 17. The tone is conversational and argumentative, with the hosts interrupting each other, laughing at examples, and pressing for direct applications. 18. The format mixes parent coaching, cultural commentary, and named references such as Carl Trueman, Joe Dallas, Nancy Pearcey, and Robert Gagnon. 19. Parents, especially those trying to talk to children about gender and sexuality, would get the most from this episode. 20. Listeners looking for a neutral policy discussion or short-form entertainment may skip it.
