Transgender Christians In Chains at Amazon

Transgender Christians In Chains is the poignant and revealing story of Bobby Lang’s struggles through confusion, personal discovery and spiritual revelation. As a young adolescent boy, Bobby wanted above all things to find God’s perfect plan for his life and to shield his family from embarrassment concerning his gender identification. In this autobiography Bobby guides the reader through the complications and challenges to become an Eagle Scout and continuing through his search for his manhood in the jungles of Viet Nam.

Spanning six decades, this story is a graphic account of his struggle through gender confusion before finally surrendering and through his transitioning to become a woman. Then, as a woman, Bobby became Bobbie and her intense determination to become a Godly woman and her search for God’s place in her life became an even more enormous mountain to climb. Despite repeated church rejection and ultimately being prevented from seeing her daughter and grandchildren, Bobbie never lost her love and faith in God.

Called to full time Christian service while in college, Bobbie focuses this book toward church leadership and pleads, not for acceptance, but for tolerance and discipleship for all people. In this narrative Bobbie illustrates how many lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) are made to feel unwelcome and chained out of church discipleship and prayer and, therefore, unable to find God’s plan for their lives. This is a spiritually uplifting book and should be recommended reading for church leadership and church membership alike.
