On today's show we welcome author Rebecca Lemke who came out joined us here in studio from her regular base in Oklahoma. Rebecca has written The Scarlet Virgins: When Sex Replaces Salvation. Rebecca led us through a complicated and sometimes very difficult episode about sexual predators in the church, the role of purity culture in American evangelicalism and where we might find some hope in our preoccupation with all things sex, culture and church.
