“I experienced Jennifer Prather's course as a top-notch, theologically solid and pastorally sensitive approach both to understand the philosophical underpinnings of gender theory and to accompany those who struggle with this to Christ. I highly recommend this course and those like it through Image & Gift. With so much confusion and hurt surrounding what it means to be human today, this is the sort of work that the Church needs to invest in- combining the rich teaching of St. John Paul II's "theology of the body" with the boots-on-the-ground "art of accompaniment" of Pope Francis."

Fr. Taylor Sanford, Diocese of Baton Rouge
