In The Body God Gives: A Biblical Response to Transgender Theory, Robert S. Smith argues that God intends a person's gender to be grounded in the reality of his or her biological sex--the body God has given. In making his case, Smith critiques the central claim of transgender theory: that the sexed body does not determine the gendered self. He also evaluates contemporary changes in thought and speech about sex and gender, responding to modern confusion with biblical conviction and compassion. God speaks clearly, both in his word and in his world.
