Parenting Without Panic - Rachel Gilson

This book helps parents proactively and positively teach young children what the Bible says about sexuality in a culture with contrasting values.

As Christian parents, we want to equip our kids to understand and embrace God’s design for human sexuality, gender, and relationships, especially as they encounter a culture where LGBT identities are affirmed and celebrated. However, knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming—that’s where this resource comes in.

Written by Rachel Gilson, this book provides a clear, thoughtful approach to teaching children a Christian framework for sexual ethics, allowing parents to take the lead in shaping their kids’ worldview on this important topic. Drawing from her own experience with same-sex attraction and her commitment to following the Bible’s teachings, Rachel offers reassurance that Jesus gives us everything we need to be faithful disciples in a fallen world. She also guides parents in responding with both grace and truth to those who hold different beliefs.

Perfect for parents of preschool and elementary-aged children, this book helps lay a biblical foundation for understanding God’s beautiful design for sexuality and equips families to navigate these conversations with wisdom and love.
