Roundtable: When God Tells You to Wait

Culture: Lessons From Purity Culture
Purity culture has gotten a bad rap — some of it for good reason. But don’t throw the proverbial baby out with the bath water. Purity culture placed a high value on God’s design for sexuality and its place within marriage. That said, pastor and author Dean Inserra acknowledges the movement’s shortcomings.

Dean reframes the conversation around God’s truth and grace, allowing us to submit our sexuality to God for His glory and our good.
