Season: 13 Episode: 186
Summary:
How did the sexual revolution impact the church? Why do many who grew up in the days of purity culture feel the message was damaging to those in the church? Terrell Clemmons from Salvo Magazine takes us back in time to the moral shift that led to the sexual revolution. We discuss why expressive individualism is hurting our culture, and why identity is linked to sexuality. This conversation is both eye opening and something the church must take note of.

About Terrell Clemmons
Terrell Clemmons has a BS in Computer Science from Clemson University and worked in software development until she hopped off the career track to be a full-time mom. Raised in a church-going home, she lived complacently toward the faith until she became a parent. Newly motivated at that point to find truth about the bigger issues of life, she researched the worldview claims of Christianity and became convinced that they were actually true. She began writing on Christian living and apologetics in 2004 and joined Salvo in 2007. She has also worked with Ratio Christi and Anchorsaway apologetics ministries for youth. With her kids now grown and her husband deceased, she lives in Indiana with her dog, the only family member still at home, where she serves as Deputy Editor of Salvo magazine.
