Found Family with MaryB. Safrit

Single Parenting, Community, and "The Talk" (feat. Amber Carroll)


Listen Later

In today's episode, you'll hear Amber and I talk:

  • about why we need to reckon with our idolatry of marriage
  • how we can build community and family as singles
  • why kids and parents need a comprehensive understanding of sexual stewardship beyond the birds and the bees talk many of us received
  • and ways single parents can ask for help with hard conversations

Amber is the Vice President of Impact and Parent Resources at Equip, the premier consulting and training solution for churches seeking to become places where LGBT+ Christians thrive for a lifetime according to a historic Christian sexual ethic. She teaches parents how to have compassionate, theologically accurate, and age-appropriate conversations about sexual stewardship with their young kids.

You can follow Amber on Facebook and Instagram @ambergarrettcarroll. For the resource list Amber mentioned or any other inquiries, DM her or reach out via email to [email protected]. Equip's Parent Course is available at equipyourcommunity.org/parentcourse
