"Purity Culture" with Kat Harris

When it comes to sexuality, the Church has often stuck to a black-and-white structure that leaves little to no room for honest dialogue. So many Christians believe they need to compartmentalize their spiritual and sexual lives, thinking that God must be embarrassed of their sexuality. While a black and white structure is easy to preach, it is much harder to live. How do we faithfully navigate the sexual scripts we’ve been given in a way that releases shame and embarrassment, bringing hard questions into the light?

Kat Harris, author of “Sexless in the City” and host of The Refined Collective Podcast, is committed to releasing women from judgment and shame and helping them develop a healthy, Biblical view around sexuality. A single woman in her 30s, Kat openly shares about her experiences navigating the dating scene in New York City as a celibate Christian. Kat has received thousands of questions from women who haven’t felt permission to be curious about sexuality and desire. She talks to Eddie and Chris about how the Church’s narratives about sex and purity shape our expectations of women, God’s “very good” vision for human relationships, and how the Church can faithfully honor and celebrate single people.
