This episode we talk about unsolicited bible verses which frankly might be worse than an unsolicited dick pic? You can decide for yourself. We chat about receiving these kinds of texts from parents and family members, boundaries, and how to navigate both of these.

Hellooooooo listeners. Today we are speaking with Dr. Lauren Sawyer and yes you guessed it, puppets. But not just puppets, we will dive into purity culture (cause thats always relevant), sex, being lgbtq+ and a believer? Is it possible? Social justice and holding the church accountable for wrong doings. Strap on in cause its gonna be a bumpy ride.

Dr. Lauren D. Sawyer is an educator and ethicist living in Seattle, Washington. For more than 5 years, Lauren has taught courses in philosophy, ethics, theology, and religion for undergraduate and graduate students across the country. In her role as Program Manager for FaithTrust Institute, she develops trainings and curriculum for a variety of religious and spiritual communities and participates in investigating allegations of clergy misconduct.

Sawyers dissertation, I Stumbled/I Caused You to Stumble:White Girls and Queer Youth as Sexual Agents in Contemporary Evangelical Purity Culture, explores the longterm effects of Christian purity culture. She investigates the function of teenage sexualization as they uphold a white supremacist patriarchal norms. Lauren’s work is a detailed analysis of gender, sexuality, religion and culture.
