The meeting of sex and religion is often troubling, uncomfortable, and even tragic for many of us. Does it have to be this way? Join my friend Deanna Harris and I as we have a conversation about the negative impacts of virginity-focused “purity culture” and our experiences with sex education in different Christian contexts. Is a joyful, playful, free approach to sexuality possible within the Church? Does being a virgin matter? These are just a few of the questions we tackle!
