Growing Up in Purity Culture | Ryan White
Manage episode 446353915 series 3595639
Sam and Aaron team up with campus counselor Ryan White to unpack the lasting impact of evangelical purity culture. They explore how purity pledges and strict relationship rules from the 90s and early 2000s shaped young Christians' views on sexuality and self-worth. While well-meaning, these teachings often led to struggles with shame and identity.
Whether you grew up with purity rings, True Love Waits pledges, or are just curious about how purity culture has influenced the church, this conversation offers an honest, relatable look at how students today can move beyond rigid expectations to form healthier, more authentic perspectives on faith, relationships, and sexuality—without the guilt.
