Minister Amy Johnson on Comprehensive Sex-Ed: Debunking the Myths Lady Preacher Podcast
-
- Christianity
She's baaaack!! Minister Amy Johnson has returned to the Lady Preacher Podcast to help debunk some of the myths around comprehensive sexuality education. We dig into the claim that comprehensive sexuality education teaches kids to have sex or that it disregards values and morals. Amy debunks the myth that abstinence-only programs are the most effective and then talks about how parents and guardians truly are the first and primary teachers of sexuality education.
My friends, especially if you are in a state that has comprehensive sexuality education on the ballot (looking at you, Washington state!), this is a great episode to listen to and share with your friends. Be informed! Know why this is an important issue for people of faith, and why so many faith leaders are in support of comprehensive sexuality education programs.
