We went all out for this episode. We received a bunch of questions about birth control so we went for it. No answers but lots of options and honest discussion about how we chose what we do.  Neither of us have a problem with preventing pregnancy so if you do and you're fine with your decision, just skip this episode. 

Also: probably shouldn't listen with your kids! 

1. Attitude: To start a discussion about birth control is to start a discussion about who's plans matter more, ours or God's? We always want to align our hearts with God's values and priorities. 

2. Types of birth control: We list multiple options of birth control. 

3. Personal Testimonies, er, stories? Anyways, we chat about what we've each done for birth control.

As we continue the sex series, we wanted to discuss how to establish boundaries in dating and why it's important to do so. There are so many questions about what's ok and what's not ok and how you actually live out your standards. In this episode we go over five thoughts on pursuing purity.

  1. Know the "why" of purity. The motivation for your behavior should always be to honor God. Of course obedience also brings blessings and benefits for you.
  2. Be accountable.  You should have someone who will check up on how you are doing. You should also be able to take your struggles and questions to them.
  3. Purity is about the heart, not a list of rules. While there are basic clear-cut guidelines most of this journey will involve growing closer to God and listening to Him speak. You can't make your personal standards a line to judge others.
  4. Virginity doesn't equal purity. You can still be pure after you've lost your virginity and you are still pure once you're married and no longer a virgin.
  5. Ask "how holy can I be?" instead of "how far can I go?".  The question should always be "will this activity help me honor God?" This will also depends on the limits of the person you are dating.
