Episode 157: Gen Z’s Sex, Marriage, and Singleness Questions with Sean McDowell

This is a needed conversation, and author and apologist Sean McDowell is the right one to have it.

As parents and ministry leaders, we don't always know how to answer Gen Z's toughest questions. Praise the Lord that Sean does, and that he's willing to help us to unpack ones like:

• “Why would God keep me from loving whomever I want to love?"
• “Why do you call your attractions to the same sex brokenness? You are not broken.”
• “I just need to be free. Why are you stopping me from freedom?”
• “If I am attracted to the same sex, why would God call me to loneliness (ie. singleness)?”
• “Who cares about sex before marriage?”

Thanks, Sean, for being a helpful friend today on the podcast! (And for being a real friend to Laurie at the surprise ending that made her cry happy tears. Listen all the way to the end to hear it. :) )

• “If I could give one piece of advice, it would be to have conversations with your kids.” -Sean McDowell
• “The point in this is that sex means something. So the final question...is if we communicate with our bodies and sex means something, then how do we love God and love other people with our bodies? What does that mean? And what does that look like?” -Sean McDowell
