“Anything goes.” That’s what modern-day sexual ethics has taught us. So, why then, do so many of our sexual experiences lead to frustration, disappointment, and shame? Today, Keith talks with Christine Emba, the author of “Rethinking Sex” and a columnist at the Washington Post, to discover more. Christine starts by explaining why she walked away from evangelicalism and how evangelical traditions surrounding sex contributed to her decision. She unpacks the institutional failures of the church that she believes have led to to today’s mass dechurching movement. Then, she shares some of our culture’s faulty (and harmful!) assumptions about sex, including confusion around consent being enough and men and women’s unwillingness to admit their differences. Plus, how does she define masculinity vs. femininity, and is it harder to be a man in today’s world than it was a generation ago? How can men and women work together to rethink the topic of sex in a more constructive, virtuous way? Listen now!
