If you were raised in purity culture like me, you may have run into some different sexual dysfunctions. Hopefully this video (an extra to my Scarlet Virgins podcast) will give you some things to think about and comfort in knowing you aren't alone and your worth is not found in your sexuality.

"Men can't be sexually assaulted," "men are emotionless," "men are inherently bad because they are sexual," etc. These are all things Rebecca learned about men through purity culture. In this episode, she addresses these assumptions and calls out purity culture's failed promises by pointing out how the side effects of the movement are not unlike the ramifications of a pornography addiction.

Is it okay to cut your hair, wear makeup, wear spaghetti straps, and get your ears pierced? It depends on who you ask! As a child, Rebecca had many friends who were not allowed or afforded even the most basic of grooming and cosmetic choices.

In this episode, she discusses coming out of this unique part of modesty and purity culture and the things that have helped her in this journey.

On 6/23/2017 Rebecca was interviewed by Thomas Umstattd Jr on The Bridge in Austin, TX. Listen here to the audio of there exchange, where they discuss the way legalistic Purity Culture elevates sex and a false idea of “purity,” and buries the Gospel.

Masturbation is a taboo subject, sometimes even in secular culture. But if we never talk about it, we inadvertently add unnecessary shame to the topic. Most of us have learned that the Bible says it is wrong, but what does the Bible actually say about it? 

In this episode, Rebecca talks about relevant Scripture on the topic, practical things to consider, and he own thoughts on the matter.    For more bonus content and to get your copy of Rebecca Lemke's "The Scarlet Virgins" - visit scarletvirgins.com. 

When you break off a dating relationship, it hurts. But what happens when you get dumped (by a Dad or otherwise) in courtship? The stakes are the equivalent of a broken engagement, and some would even say a marriage. The pain is excruciating, but if you've had a failed courtship, you aren't alone!

In this episode, Rebecca talks about her own experience with a failed courtship (and her husband's) and what you can do to heal afterwards.

Legalism in purity culture produces shame, which in turn can cause internalized self-hatred. Addiction, mental health issues, and self-harm are all a result of this internalized self-hatred. In this episode, Rebecca talks about the scars we carry, whether they are physical or mental, and introduces a new way of thinking about our permanent marks. Jesus has scars just like us, and ours serve as a perfect way to point us to Him.
