Dr. Christine Bacon and regular contributing guest theologian Leslie Brown at the WKQA recording studios in Hampton Roads, Virginia.

Is chastity a thing of the past? Are there still benefits to being chaste? Why is chastity one of the twelve Christian virtues? When a virtue is defined as "a disposition to do the good" it is essential for humans today to understand why protecting one's sexuality is, at its core, truly good. In a culture of "use" where chastity is such a non-value, today's conversation with theologian Leslie Brown brings about a refreshing return to the beauty of this gift of love. Listen in and be encouraged as this age-old virtue is given renewed interest and understanding in a world so desperately in need of it.

Guest Leslie Brown and Dr. Christine Bacon snuggling their favorite millennial Thaddeus Boyd after their discussion on God's design for marriage. We are always blessed to have someone willing to offer opinions that sometimes oppose ours and yet do so with an open mind and heart.

We continue our conversation between the genders and generations on the subject of love, sex, marriage and other crazy, uncomfortable and misunderstood topics in our world today. For instance, what do "young" people think when we say that marriage is to make us holy and not happy? Heck, what do "old" people think?! Is "progress" good or is it just a blanket covering for anything that goes against tradition? Listen in and join the conversation. You may just be enlightened and enjoy yourself along the way.
