The Birds and the Bees: A Parent Guide to Talking About Sex and God’s Design

This guide gives parents a framework and language for having ongoing conversations about sexuality from a biblical perspective—not just one awkward “big talk.” It covers when to start, what to say at different ages, and how to keep Jesus at the center while addressing real questions kids are asking. Use it in a parent workshop on sexuality, as a resource you offer when these topics come up in pastoral care, or as a downloadable tool on your family discipleship page.
