On today's episode we continue our discussion on our listener asked question about Christian women reading smutty books. This time we dive into what purity is and how to fight for purity in a culture that is full of sexual sin. We talk about how purity goes beyond saving yourself for marriage, how to flee immorality, the importance of bringing sin to the light, filtering the content we consume through Scripture, and doing the things that promote purity. Ultimately we learn that true purity requires a heart transformed by Christ.
