Faith Adjacent: Purity Culture

With her spy decoder ring in hand, Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon goes on a spiritual archeology dig through the evangelical Purity Culture movement. What does the Bible say about sex and purity? What did Purity Culture get wrong, and what did it get right? What got twisted out of context? Let’s get busy and uncover the truth.
