Here's a question: I wonder what Bruce Jenner, a/k/a "Kylie," thinks of boys competing in sports as girls? He was the top male athlete in the world, winning the decathlon at the Olympics (68? 72? 76? I don't remember). His musculature, bone density, strength and height were all advantages that he obviously worked hard to develop and build up to make himself the fastest, strongest male athlete in the world. What if, prior to that point in his life, he had decided he had to "live his truth," and live and compete as a girl? Does he think that would have been a fair competition? Does he think the testosterone in his body that makes his bones denser, his muscles bigger and stronger, and partly makes him taller than the other competitors would have been affected by his self-identification?
@@patriciaseyfferle1427 Bruce Jenner (aka Caitlin) was featured in many magazines, but I remember one where he was saying that he "missed" Bruce, and was expressing some regret for changing. I think perhaps the trouble was that he was too much of a public figure, and had made the whole transition very public, so he felt he was kinda stuck with it. That's just my perception. Only Bruce knows for sure. (I know he identifies as "Caitlin" now, but he's really still Bruce to me.)
I would like to see FOTF create and have a series that families can share with their children. We NEED to get real with our youth today. The enemy is hard at work attacking the minds, hearts and souls of our children.
Although he focused on that too much. For some people there isn’t an incident. But after have an appearance or even mannerisms that are culturally more typical of the opposite gender….every morning that time in the mirror IS the incident and they experience it day day after day after day
This is addressed with dignity and love. If only more people would approach this from the fact most children were not treated well as a child. They punished themselves because an adult did not protect them.
Right! Rather than, “AGHH, WHAT’S WRONG WITH THIS GENERATION!” 😅😢 We all need to reflect .. Sin is never a personal issue .. the ripple effect is real.
I think we can still say, what’s wrong with this generation. Just without the Aug! And next, what can we do to help, because this is very much a culture thing.
There are MANY people in the church who don't believe that the Lord loves them even when they sin. Such a powerful statement from Kathy Grace about unconditional love and not living in fear.
Thank you for this very respectful way you tackle this topic! "My job is to love you. It's his job to change you." And the testemony of Kathy Grace confirms exactly that. If only we Christians could really embrace this approach not only in this area, but in all matter of sin. A "you are sinners" sign will (seldom) bring people to Jesus but loving them unconditionally and bringing them to the loving and changing arms of Christ, that's what really changing hearts and people!
I knew I had issues. Their sharing helped me "get it." I feel alot better. I know I 'll make more progress now. I see better where the hints of gender brokeness whispered in my heart. I am confident complete peace is waiting for me from the Holy Spirit's guidance and healing. Thanks for promoting truth and hope!!
I wanted to hear more from her as well....So I searched her name on utube. You can actually find a few utube videos where she is speaking and sharing. I'm going to watch them now. There is something about her story that really touches me.
Walt and Kathy Grace are shining examples of what can happen when we totally surrender to the Lord Jesus. Oh my! When we step out in faith courageously, He give us the power to follow through with what He wants to do in our lives. Thank you Focus on the Family.
The Lord woos them and loves them thru His word . So sweet. He is so gentle in how he prunes us . I love how the Holy Spirit blew into Kathy right at the moment she bravely confessed truth. God's transformative power !
I'm very impressed and intrigued by your church's love for you in your transgender identity. You both were involved and committed to your church community. And through that community the Lord worked in your spirit to bring you to true identity in Him.
This is the best brief presentation of why some people don't like what gender they are. Thanks for revealing these suicides of the heart, and God's solution that brought these individuals the reality of truth of their brokenness, and the healing that comes through dealing honestly with it through the compassion of genuine counsel and the power and love of Christ.
Jesus is the answer! I do have to say that this discussion is appropriate for younger listeners! Children are taught about these things as soon as they can understand English! We need to train up the next generation as soon as possible!
Thank You for your bravery. Thank you for sharing the very difficult things in your life so that others may come to the truth also. May Armloads of Blessings rain down upon you both.
Wowww!! Powerful!! Thank you for your humble hearts to share your testimonies! Our Almighty Lord continue blessing you, both!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
Thanks for this interview. Helping increase compassion for others. It makes me think about those people who may think weight loss surgery can solve all their problems. External changes are temporal. Gods love is eternal. Thanks Kathy and Walt for your honesty and courage.
THIS!! Yes, so true about weight loss surgery. It's the same as Walt expressed in part 1 about how his grandmother's affirmation of his wearing the purple dress translated to him that he was unacceptable as a boy. I have stage 3 lipedema -- an hormone-driven adipose tissue disorder which affects 11% of the female population, with no known cure, and is resistant to diet and exercise -- and every time someone suggests I lose weight it fills me with deep shame and guilt, that I am so unacceptable as I am.
I was a tomboy as a child. If I was living in today's culture, people would be pushing me to be a male which is ridiculous because I am a woman, a female, and happy to be one but I was rough and a tomboy as a child.
This opened up my eyes to my family and what is happening and how to look at it in a different perspective, but yet also wonder on some of the stuff Walt went through and could it be what happened in my family.. very painful memories
Sadly, too many don't survive. Brokenness is everywhere. Grateful for both Kathy Grace and how the Lord has redeemed their lives to bless so many others.
Thank you for sharing your program on youtube. Your subject is relevant all over the world and I was able to understand more what's really going through with the LGBTQ community.
Thank you so much for sharing all this Kathy and Walt. I have loved ones in this same situation as what you both went through, the things that led to the desire to be the opposite gender. Between this snd hearing others stories and also a great video about what causes male homosexuality to develop, I feel like I have a better understanding how to help them. I see from this talk that the same kinds of things that lead males to this brokenness are often the same for females. Thanks again. Prayers for everyone struggling with this brokenness and for those who minister to them
So many of us sinners have been broken here in this world! So we all come to Jesus in the same way! Needy! I love the grace that draws us into relationtionship with our LORD! Then HE begins to make all things new! Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench; He will bring forth justice for truth. Then HE graces is with the ability to share our powerful testimony and healing with others! May the LORD bless their ministries and their families! Thank you FOCUS for your courage to bring their testimonies to us!
Thanks for sharing, Carol. Be assured of our prayers for your sister-in-law and nieces. Our God cares more deeply than we can imagine and is faithful to respond according to His perfect wisdom. Also, if you or your loved ones ever need a listening ear, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. Here’s the contact info: bit.ly/2ItKdoE. God bless you.
Kathy Grace and Walt testimony was so powerful...They accepted Jesus Christ as there Lord and Savior....and knew the true love of Jesus Christ....It takes courage to change and to learn the truth....When Walt talked about a place of brokenness..I couldn't stop crying...I am a Christian married women and when he explained brokenness and to seek truth...Because the truth will set you free....Only Jesus can heal that broken place inside of me....Thank you......for sharing and living in your truth....
Thank you for these testimonies, for the love, and respect. I am thankful that you allowed yourself to hear God's love. I am thankful that I can learn from your experiences and it helps me learn how to walk in God's amazing love.
Kathy realized she was deceived When she realized she use to say "I am a man who lived as a woman" and when confronted she admitted "I am a woman living like a man" The truth was in her she confessed it and it set her free.
I pray for your amazing ministry! I had watched another episode with walt's story and I love the honesty and Gods grace that shines. I wish for more men to raise up like Walt and want to get to the heart of why..what makes you think ..what happened...our home ended. For Kathy story, it is so true, you never know how much of an impact the effects of domestic violence will have on your home, verbal, physical or emotional abuse. Thank you for sharing yourselves.
“Changing gender is the suicide we live through “ WOW. I wish every human being could hear these incredible people and glean wisdom

Agreed! I think we need a teen version and one for younger kids.
Absolutely agree
Thank you Kathy Grace and Walt for your vulnerability and truth. The body of Christ needs to hear from you.
I love this guy. It isn't about gender issues. Something much deeper is going on!!
Brothers and sisters such as these, in their honesty and vulnerability, teach us, comfort us, are excellent and praiseworthy!~Phil. 4:8

I would love for you to have Kathy Grace back and interview her separately. I sense she has more to share.
And Walt as well. More of this! Honest sharing.
She looks 😥 sad

@Sue Hendrickson, if you type “Kathy Grace Duncan” in the UA-cam magnifier, you will see more videos featuring her!
Thank you for approaching this subject with grace and truth! Much needed discussion,in the Christian community.
I appreciated the raw authenticity of all Walt had to say and would love to hear more from Kathy Grace Duncan! Please bring her back!
@Hollyheart crafts, if you type “Kathy Grace Duncan” in the UA-cam magnifier, you will see more videos featuring her!
I love her confident demeanor and calm joy. She is a lovely example for women. Very dignified.

"The difference is that I am no longer decieved" . Boom.
What happened to cause them to not like who they are? The truth will set you free.

I love how the Holy Spirit blew into Kathy right at the moment she bravely confessed truth. God's transformative power !
Oh thank you Jesus for these 4 precious children of yours!! Hallelujah!
This conversation really requires much more time that 25 minutes. Please consider having more conversation with these two. Thank you
Right! More than hour is appropriate for me!
Did you catch part 1?
I'm very impressed and intrigued by your church's love for you in your transgender identity. You both were involved and committed to your church community. And through that community the Lord worked in your spirit to bring you to true identity in Him.
Our job is to love them 💜❤️💙
I'm so thankful you're offering free resources to those we love.Amen
Please bring them both back individually so we can hear more of each person’s truth and wisdom. I pray for them. Thank you FOTF.
Our job as Christians is to love each other and God's part is to change each person!! 💘🎯
Thank you, Walt! The Truth (Jesus) will set you free!

Thank you Kathy Grace and Walt! ❤️ this is a beautiful example of redemption!
From broken to their real self redeemed in Jesus Christ. Love ❤️
Shout truth from the rooftops! Praise Jesus our redeemer! 🥲❤🙌
Thank You for your bravery. Thank you for sharing the very difficult things in your life so that others may come to the truth also. May Armloads of Blessings rain down upon you both.

incredible! So needed today with all the confusion. Wish the world could hear this!
Bless you all !!!
So acurate in everything that had to be said…
💜✝️💜
I am so grateful for this posting. Thank you for your boldness. ✝️
Love your profile scripture. My testimony and life verse. ❤️
"Transitioning is the suicide that you live through" wow! That sounds true. It's really a form of total escapism.
Such deeply thoughtful words that he has lived. So many people need to hear this.
Wow, that is one of the most accurate descriptions I've heard! 'Total escapism'.
VERY WELL SAID!!
Wowww!! Powerful!!
Thank you for your humble hearts to share your testimonies! Our Almighty Lord continue blessing you, both!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
Kathy your story is so much more and deep! Wish you spoke more, I love when you speak of Jesus.

Both their testimonies are amazing. I'm so blessed and encouraged.
I cried when Walt told the story about Jesus picking him up as a baby. 🥲
Thank you FOTF so much for this discussion. This is so helpful in my family and work situation.
Powerful testimony, for sure! Thank you Kathy Grace and Walt Heyer for bringing this important topic to light through your testimony!
I like the honesty of this discussion.
Thank you so much for helping me to realize how to live with my brothers and sisters that are in different walks of life ❤
Sadly, too many don't survive. Brokenness is everywhere. Grateful for both Kathy Grace and how the Lord has redeemed their lives to bless so many others.
Thank you for being bold to shed light into this issue-especially for us as the church to walk in love, compassion and understanding.
So much love and deeper understanding in this 2 part interview on this subject... ❤️
This was so informative and it would be great if there was a part 3, they definitely have more to share. Please share until complete!
