Live Q&A - Protect Kids Act 2024 with Kris Vallotton and Elizabeth Woning

·25 min·2 clips

Elizabeth Woning reveals how a 17-year-old's prophetic word shattered her academic faith and led to a journey of rediscovering God.

The episode begins with Kris Vallotton introducing Elizabeth Woning as a friend and part of the Changed Movement, an offshoot of Moral Revolution focused on ministering to LGBTQ individuals. Elizabeth recounts her personal story: she questioned her sexuality as a teen, came out as gay in her early 20s, and was part of a gay-affirming church while attending seminary. Her faith was challenged by a prophetic word from a 17-year-old boy, leading her to reevaluate her beliefs and ultimately leave her LGBTQ identity. She explains that this encounter convicted her of unbelief rather than sin regarding her sexuality. Elizabeth then describes the Changed Movement, which started as Equipped to Love at Bethel Church but evolved into a network for people leaving LGBTQ identities after political involvement against a California consumer fraud bill. The movement now equips churches to support individuals embracing a biblical sexual ethic and engages in public policy. Kris and Elizabeth delve into the complexity of sexual identity, debating whether it's comparable to race or ethnicity. They argue that sexual orientation is not genetic but involves environmental and temperamental factors, citing statistics on fluidity within the LGBTQ community. Elizabeth notes that the movement has shifted from a 'born this way' narrative to one emphasizing choice and fluidity, particularly with the rise of non-binary and transgender identities. The conversation turns to the Protect Kids Act 2024, a California ballot measure that combines three provisions: protecting girls' sports and women's spaces, requiring parental notification if children identify as transgender at school, and banning irreversible surgeries and procedures for minors. Elizabeth explains that the act bypasses the state legislature due to perceived ideological capture, and they are currently collecting signatures to get it on the ballot. Kris urges California residents to sign the petition, emphasizing common-sense concerns about parental rights and fairness in sports. The episode concludes with Kris thanking Elizabeth and inviting future Q&A sessions.
