Summary

Every week, I receive heart-breaking emails and messages via social media from parents who are struggling to navigate their way through a confusing and deceitful new narrative regarding human sexuality. As Christians, God calls us to know His Word—and like all things related to His creation, God is not silent on the issue of human sexuality. Today, I am thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Georgia Purdom. We’ll be talking for a few minutes about how we can be better equipped to answer the questions that a generation in spiritual crisis is asking about sex. Join me for an encouraging and informative podcast!
Dr. Georgia Purdom earned her PhD in molecular genetics from The Ohio State University.  After teaching as a college biology professor for 6 years, she joined Answers in Genesis in 2006 where she serves as the Ministry Content Administrator in addition to being a speaker, writer, and researcher. She also directs AiG’s annual women’s conference, Answers for Women, bringing relevant apologetics teaching to women. Dr. Purdom and her husband Chris have been married for 21 years and have a 14 year old daughter Elizabeth. Georgia enjoys homeschooling her daughter and teaching online for Liberty University.
