Your kids cannot go into a public restroom these days, turn on the television, go to school, or play high school or collegiate sports without being confronted with the question of sexuality.

Who defines it?

Our politicians, our celebrities, our educators, our feelings… or God?

This is the most relevant cultural issue of our day. The question of sexuality goes to the very core of who we are as human beings. Are we made in our own image according to our own feelings, or are we made in God’s image according to His design?

In episode 45 of CHRISTIAN PARENT/CRAZY WORLD, the first of a four-part series on sexuality, I dig into what God has to say about our sexuality.

We need to be having discussions with our kids about this topic because the world is. Our voice needs to be a trusted source of truth for our kids to navigate the dangerous secular landmine of their sexual identity.

Joining me for this vitally important discussion on CPCW is Erin Barry, an author, speaker, counselor, and educational consultant. Erin has a B.A. in Education, an M.A. in counseling, works professionally as both a counselor and consultant, and she is working on her doctorate in counseling where she is specializing in the field of sexuality. Erin and her husband Brett have founded the “The Home Educated Mind,” a Christ-centered community dedicated to providing materials and support for Christian parents.
