Faith and Feminism

Sheila Gregoire, blogger and author of several relationship and sex books, talks to us about the problematic elements of the popular evangelical book Love and Respect by Emmerson Eggerichs.

Sheila Wray Gregoire comes on the podcast to talk to us about the new book she co-wrote called "The Great Sex Rescue" in which she surveyed over 20k women to uncover the problematic things evangelical women have been taught about sex-- and how to recover.

We've all heard about "Biblical manhood." There are different iterations of it, but in our culture manhood seems to center around being a tough leader who protects and provides. But is that the kind of masculinity that Jesus demonstrated? And exactly what did God have in mind when he created men? On this episode of Faith and Feminism, I get the opportunity to interview Carolyn Custis James on her book, Malestrom: Manhood Swept into the Current of a Changing World. "Biblical Manhood" as you've been taught may not be what God intended.

A lot of us have deconstructed the Purity movement, but we're unsure of what sex looks like now. How do we honor God, ourselves, and others in our sex lives? What is sexual immorality? And what does it look like to live sexually moral lives? We explore all this and more in today's podcast.

So many of us were raised in purity culture and taught that sex and sexuality are shameful. As some of us begin to become parents, we are wondering how exactly to navigate this area of life with our children. Dr. Sellers shares with us about her new book "Shameless Parenting" and how we can reparent ourselves, and our children, to have a healthy sexual ethic.

Dr. Tina Sellers talks about her book, "Sex, God, and the Conservative Church." In it, she reclaims a healthy sexuality for the church.

Recently there's been some news surrounding the Billy Graham Rule. Politicians, clergy, and even civil servants are claiming the rule and citing the Bible in order not to be alone with female colleagues, but does this even have a Biblical base? Today on the podcast, New Testament scholar Laura Robinson talks about the rule and whether or not it's protecting or harming women.
