On Our Periods


Listen Later

Did you know the Bible has a whole passage about periods and menstruation? Today we’re talking about Leviticus 15 and “bodily discharges”. Men, don’t skip this episode because it’s a topic we all need to understand better. We’re digging into how to interpret the way the Bible talks about male and female reproductive hygiene, and specifically the ways we think about being “unclean” and what God’s intention is for the way we view ourselves. This is a passage that on the surface can feel harsh and disgusted, but we believe contains compassionate guidance for life on earth and a glimpse into the sacred.
In this episode we dig into:
Leviticus 15:19-31
Leviticus 17: 11,14
Ezekiel 22:10
Luke 8:43-48
Jamie mentioned the ways women in developing nations navigate menstruation and we want to recommend a wonderful (and Oscar winning!) documentary short called Period. End of Sentence available on Netflix
