Sean McDowell – The World of Transgenderism & Worldview and Film
Time: 11:45am & 2:15pm — Location: Auditorium
We are in the midst of a gender revolution. People are reconsidering gender norms and wrestling with what this means for families, schools, sports, health care, the church, and many other social institutions. In this presentation, Sean compares and contrasts the worldview behind this new revolution with the historic Christian faith. It is only when we understand the worldview behind transgenderism that we can wisely address some of the difficult practical issues capturing the cultural conversation today.
Movies, television, and other forms of modern media deeply shape the way we view the world. In this session, Sean walks through how to understand the nature and power of worldviews through analyzing various films. Using short clips, Sean will help the audience learn how to more critically watch movies and also to see how they present a “view of the world” that compares and contrasts with the Christian faith.
