The Naked Gospel

What really happened between Ham and Noah in Genesis 9—and why did it result in a curse that would impact generations?

Wailer and Adena wrestle with one of Scripture’s more disturbing passages, exploring the language of “uncovering nakedness,” related passages in Leviticus, and interpretations preserved within Jewish tradition. Rather than simply seeing his father naked, the text may point toward Ham committing a serious violation against Noah. While Scripture doesn’t explicitly tell us exactly what happened, the conversation explores several possibilities and why the consequences were so severe.

Beyond determining what happened in Noah’s tent, this episode asks what Genesis 9 reveals about the weight of our sexuality. Sexual choices are never isolated—they can shape relationships, families, and even generations. Wailer and Adena challenge Christians to recover a sacred vision of sexuality rooted in responsibility, wisdom, and God’s design, while equipping parents to have honest conversations about sex with the next generation.

Genesis 6 gets weird fast.

The sons of God. The daughters of men. The Nephilim. A world so corrupted that God grieves what humanity has become. But what does any of this have to do with sex, and why should it matter to us now?

In this episode of The Naked Gospel, Wailer and Adena step into one of Scripture’s strangest passages and explore the possibility that Genesis 6 gives us a glimpse into a much larger spiritual conflict. Drawing heavily from Michael Heiser’s The Unseen Realm, they discuss the divine council, rebellious spiritual beings, ancient mythology, and the cosmic significance of human sexuality.

But the conversation doesn’t stay in the ancient world. Wailer and Adena wrestle with what Genesis 6 reveals about our bodies today: sex without responsibility, pornography, sexual brokenness, trauma, healing, marriage, intimacy, and the difficult practice of becoming more like Christ.

Because if sexuality can participate in the corruption of God’s creation, perhaps redeemed sexuality can also participate in its restoration.

Sex may be private, but it is never secret nor insignificant.

What does it actually mean to “rule over” sin when temptation feels overwhelming?

Continuing their journey through Genesis, Wailer and Adena move into Genesis 4 and 5 to examine Cain, temptation, desire, and the devastating consequences of allowing sin to take control. God’s warning to Cain, “sin is crouching at the door... but you must rule over it”, raises an important question for anyone who has felt trapped by pornography or unwanted sexual behavior: Is lasting freedom really possible?

Wailer and Adena argue that Scripture gives us more than a command to simply try harder. It gives us a path toward transformation. They discuss the importance of Scripture memorization, replacing old patterns with the pursuit of righteousness, and practicing spiritual disciplines even when they initially feel boring or difficult.

Freedom isn't found by white-knuckling your way through temptation. It's found through learning to pursue righteousness, allowing God to reshape your desires, and faithfully practicing a different way of living.

Most Christians begin thinking about the Bible at Genesis 3, but that's already after everything has gone wrong.

In this episode of The Naked Gospel, Wailer and Adena walk through one of Scripture's most misunderstood chapters. Together they examine what actually happened in the Garden, where tradition began replacing God's commands, why Adam's silence mattered, and how sin fractured humanity's relationship with God, one another, and creation itself.

They also wrestle with difficult questions surrounding marriage, leadership, submission, and the curse, offering a perspective rooted not in domination, but in sacrificial love modeled by Christ.

What does Genesis 2 really teach about men, women, and marriage?

As Wailer and Adena continue their walk through Genesis, they move beyond familiar interpretations and uncover the deeper story woven into humanity's creation. Together they explore why Adam was formed outside the garden, what Eve's creation reveals about feminine strength, and how marriage reflects God's own nature.

Along the way, they wrestle with difficult cultural questions surrounding masculinity, femininity, feminism, and biblical identity while showing how Scripture presents men and women as equal, complementary image-bearers created to reveal God's character together.

What if sexuality isn't merely a biological reality or a moral issue?

What if it's one of the clearest ways God reveals Himself through humanity?

In this episode, Wailer and Adena begin their journey through Scripture's teaching on sexuality by returning to the very beginning—Genesis 1. Together they explore God's first command to humanity, the meaning of being made male and female in the image of God, and why sexuality is far more sacred than most Christians have been taught.

Along the way, they unpack the ancient concept of image-bearing, discuss why sexual brokenness often runs deeper than behavior, and share parts of their own story of pornography, betrayal, healing, forgiveness, and restoration.

For the first time, Wailer is joined in the studio by his wife, Adena, as The Naked Gospel enters a brand-new chapter.

Together, they share the personal story that led them into sexual integrity ministry, reflect on twenty-one years of marriage, raising six children, and why conversations about sex have become increasingly absent within the Church.

They explore the lasting effects of purity culture, the silence surrounding pornography and abuse, why shame keeps so many Christians isolated, and how authentic community becomes one of God's primary tools for healing.

Most importantly, they introduce the new direction of the podcast—a journey through Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, uncovering God's design for sexuality, intimacy, the body, and the Gospel itself.

What if the conversation around sexuality has been missing the most important piece?

For generations, many Christians have heard what not to do but have rarely been given a compelling vision for what God actually designed sex, intimacy, and relationships to be. The result has often been shame, confusion, isolation, and unanswered questions.

The Naked Gospel exists to change that.

This podcast explores God's design for sexuality through the lens of the Gospel—bringing biblical truth, honest conversations, and lasting hope without avoiding difficult topics. Together, we'll pursue deeper intimacy with God while discovering that shame doesn't have the final word.
