When I first started crossdressing as a kid, I immediately started searching God’s Word for guidance about it. Ever since that time 1 Corinthians 6:9 has always been of interest to me. It is not as well known in the crossdressing community as Deuteronomy 22:5, but in...

For Christians who have battled with sexual addictions like crossdressing throughout their lives, I think Mark 14:38 is a really emotional and powerful verse. Jesus said to the disciples, “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is...

It seems to be the fashion in our culture among both non-Christians and Christians to say that if we were born with certain tendencies or desires, then those tendencies and desires are good and should be embraced. This comes up often with the topic of homosexuality....
