How does one respond to a friend who is going through transgender transition and becoming more open about it? Not a member of the church or a believer.

It's a difficult situation and your response is ultimately going to depend on what specifically is going on. Ultimately you should always treat your friend with love and respect. If they ask you what you think about it, tell them you don't agree, and why. If they've switched pronouns, you might ask if you using "they/them" is okay with them, as a kind of middle ground between them wanting everyone to recognize their change and your inability to "approve" of it (using their previous pronoun seems to cause much more harm than good, I've found). Pray for them.
