Where Do We Go From Here?

22: I Wasn't Straight, but I Also Wasn't Gay


Listen Later

It's our first episode about queer Christianity, and Jenna De Witt joins us to talk about aromantic asexuality. We talk about what it's been like for her to navigate a church life and secular life that assumes everyone is sexually attracted to someone, and Jenna shares her calling with us for asexual people to know that they aren't alone.
