Summary

“The biggest misstep that we've taken is that we’ve flattened this robust, multi-dimensional, layered, nuanced experience of our sexuality into a one-dimensional act of sex. We’ve flattened this experience into a set do's and don'ts.⁠ ♥️⁠ It’s much easier to preach ‘Don’t even get close. Just don’t do anything at all.’ It’s much easier to offer a black and white sound bite than to equip people to actually seek God and look at the scriptures.” -- @therefinedwoman⁠ ♥️⁠ SINGLE people - take the time to tune into this episode and be enlightened with HOW to express your sexuality as a single person. Expressing sexuality is NOT all about having sex.⁠ You can pre-order Kat's book Sexless in the City here.

0:47.1	The biggest misstep that the church has taken.
0:49.1	And it is that we fought in this robust, multi-dimensional, layered, nuanced experience into a one-dimensional
