I am 21, a housewife to a hard-working husband, and mother to one beautiful little miracle boy. We are LCMS Lutherans from Oklahoma (hence the y'all).

I have a lot of creative interests, writing, podcasting, speaking, photography, etc.

If you want to know a bit about how I grew up, you can read this The Negative Impact of Purity Culture

Welcome to the forums Rebecca!

I read your post on the "purity" culture, And I could not agree more with its problems. Us guys did not have it so easy either. While I am a generation earlier, we came up in the earlier version of it called "Gothardism." It was brutal. I chalk it up to this:

Colossians 2:23
These are matters which have, to be sure, the appearance of wisdom in self-made religion and self-abasement and severe treatment of the body, but are of no value against fleshly indulgence.

The world of Christianity can be found here in these forums in which you can explore. After all you will be a great Christian being here in terms of information on this religion if you'd like to learn about it not unless you're already well versed, lol. Do you like classical music? Very good for Christianity. Welcome to CF.
