Transgender people and the church – Preston Sprinkle and Christina Beardsley

Rev Christina Beardsley is a transgender priest in the Church of England and author of numerous resources on trans experience in the church.

She engages with Preston Sprinkle, author of ‘Embodied: Transgender Identities, the Church, and What the Bible Has to Say’ who takes a grace-filled but traditional Christian approach to sexuality.

They discuss how churches should engage with trans people, theological questions of ‘bodily’ and ‘gender’ identity, and the issue of Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria.
