In a world where the internet is more than happy to disciple our kids in sexuality, many churches, Christian schools and mums and dads feel ill-equipped, anxious, or stuck behind a wall of silence. Our guests today are changing that. Lauren and Georgia are the co - founders and CEOs of Big Kids’ Table, a ministry born out a shared passion to move beyond ’purity culture’ and into true sexual discipleship. We discuss how and why talking about God and sex does not have to be awkward, uncomfortable, difficult or embarrassing, and why it so important that young people learn about faith, identity, and relationships.
