Many parents feel anxious or unequipped to talk about gender and identity with their kids—but Dr. Kathy Koch shows how biblical wisdom and simple, honest conversations can build confidence and discernment. Christian author and speaker Dr. Kathy Koch, founder of Celebrate Kids, Inc., joins Dr. Jim Burns for a powerful conversation to equip parents with biblical wisdom and practical tools for guiding their children through today’s gender confusion. She shares hope-filled encouragement for parents who may feel fearful or uncertain about addressing this sensitive topic, offering insight on how to build their children’s confidence in God’s intentional design for their gender. Dr. Koch explains how to lovingly help kids separate facts from feelings, spot warning signs of identity struggles, and avoid common mistakes parents make. Throughout, she points to the transforming power of Scripture and the goodness of God’s plan, urging families to approach these conversations with both truth and empathy.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
