Episode notes
In this episode, Kelly is joined by author, psychotherapist, and fellow podcast host, Matthias Roberts for part two of this two-part series on Defining Sexual Values for Ourselves. In it, they discuss:
how sexual shame can develop within faith-based upbringings (specifically Christianity in this episode)
three specific types of shame-based coping mechanisms: shamefulness, shamelessness, and autopilot
re-framing the Bible and Christian faith so that they can still inform our sexual values and ethics, but in a more robust, honest, wholistic way
various passages of scripture usually taught within evangelicalism and/or purity culture but that leave us with an incomplete "biblical sexual ethic"
how people on the journey of defining their own sexual values will often get it right ...
