Identity Reclaimed – God’s Design for Gender and Sexuality

We are connecting biblical clarity, medical expertise, and cultural awareness to understand how we can best walk beside those who are struggling with questions about their gender or sexuality.

What does it look like to balance truth and grace as we seek to love our friends and family who have same-sex attractions or believe they are born in the wrong body? How can we walk beside them, and point them to true healing and restoration found in a transforming relationship with Christ? 
Join us for a deep-dive into these and many other important questions at our upcoming Identity Reclaimed 1-day conference. 

WHEN: December 6, 2025 from 10:00AM – 1:30PM MT

WHERE: Parkview E-Free Church, 333 Sandra Lane, Rapid City, SD 57701
