Purity and Womanhood: Moving Beyond "Good Girl" Christianity

For many women, purity was presented as the pathway to being a "good girl," securing a good marriage, or meeting cultural and religious expectations. But is that the ultimate purpose of purity? In this episode, Mary Obago and I take an honest look at purity through the lens of biblical womanhood, moving beyond societal roles and expectations to examine what God's Word actually teaches. As followers of Christ, our call to purity is rooted not in performance, reputation, or marital status, but in the character of God Himself. We serve a holy God, and He calls His people to holiness.

Forgive me my sins, wash me with your blood. I believe you died for me, on the third day you rose again that I may be justified. Right now, I believe that my sins are forgiven; I’m justified by your blood; I’m born-again; I’m saved; I’m a child of God; I’m free from the power of sin to serve the living God. Thank you Jesus for receiving me; thank you Jesus for restoring me; thank you Jesus for saving me.
