Navigate Sensitive Topics in Our Secular Culture

A PreK-12th grade program that equips parents and educators to address difficult topics from a Biblical worldview.

The Problem


Secular ideologies have left our children scared and confused. Parents and educators are often underprepared to address difficult topics such as:

  • Abortion
  • Pornography
  • Promiscuity
  • Transgenderism
  • and Homosexuality

Truth is often hidden, obscured, and defaced. The world desperately needs to encounter the God-given truth of the body.

The Solution


MBMI color

My Body, My Identity is a video-based program that unveils the truth of the body as it relates to important, sensitive topics from a Biblical perspective.

It is designed to teach Christian values in ways that are appropriate for different age groups.

The Problem: We Live in a Society

The need for hope has never been more pronounced than now.

The economy of death kills millions of innocent humans annually, young children are exposed to pornography before learning fractions, the hook-up culture is rife with contraception and divorce, identity is based on emotions and attractions, and youth are encouraged to consider, “Am I bi?”

We are living in a culture where eyes see but do not believe: where the evident truth is ignored and war is waged by willful ignorance. Children are raised to believe that happiness lies in pleasure, only to find suffering and death.

As in every war, in every age, it is the children who suffer the most.

Abortion leaves the youngest dead and the born unsure of their value. Pornography haunts the minds of those who should be the most innocent among us. Promiscuity leads inexorably to divorce, and the children are split between parents in angst, confusion, and fear. Transgenderism strikes at the very foundation of self, removing confidence in all that was once thought to be certain. And homosexuality obscures and replaces true love with lust in a spiral of self-indulgence.

What remains is a depressed, confused, angry question: “What can it all mean?”

The Solution: My Body, My Identity

A Curriculum for Changing Our Culture

This video-based program was developed to teach children what it means to be human in a world where humanity has lost its meaning. In age-appropriate steps, My Body, My Identity: Discovering God’s Design builds a culture of life.

From PreK through 12th Grade, My Body, My Identity helps educators discuss important but sensitive topics from a traditional, Biblical perspective. It is designed to teach Christian values in ways that are appropriate for different age groups.

The upper levels of My Body, My Identity include specific lessons on:

  • Abortion
  • Transgenderism
  • Homosexuality
  • Promiscuity
  • and Pornography

Grounded in the Bible and the Theology of the Body, and created by an ecumenical team of Christian experts, this program teaches that we are made by God and should live according to His design.

Who is the Program For?

The Discovery series (PreK-2nd Grade) and Journey series (3rd-5th Grade) include enjoyable storybooks and animated videos that convey content through fictional stories.  They don’t directly address abortion, transgenderism, homosexuality, pornography or promiscuity.

The two programs do lay the foundation for discussion by exploring Life, Male & Female, Family, the Body, and Marriage.

The Design series (6th-8th Grade) and Identity series (9th-12th Grade) use documentary-style explainers and expert interviews to dive into more of the nuances of discussing abortion, homosexuality, pornography, promiscuity, and transgenderism.

Professionally developed animations explore the goodness of life, friendship, marriage, and the body.

Difficult topics are navigated with care and authenticity. Of the five primary sensitive topics addressed, only pornography is mentioned by name, since students this age are likely to have encountered it.
