Sex Cult Nun: Faith Jones on Breaking Way from the Children of God (Part 1): There are unconventional childhoods, and then there is growing up in the Children of God. International attorney, humanitarian, author, and TEDx speaker Faith Jones was raised in this infamous cult founded by her paternal grandfather in 1968. The group, later referred to as “the Family,” was notorious for its radical practices, which required members to become fulltime missionaries, give up their income and formal education, and abide by the “Law of Love,” a doctrine which encouraged spouse sharing, sexual relations with children, and the “Flirty Fishing” practice of using female followers as sex-bait to reel in followers. Thank gravy that Faith emancipated herself at 23, was later accepted into Berkeley Law school, and now travels the world advocating for everything that is NOT Children of God-like. She joins us in this first of two episodes to talk about Sex Cult Nun, her scorching memoir of her life inside by A Little Bit Culty

E86: Why Theology Belongs in the Bedroom: Many people believe that Christianity is antithetical to sexual freedom. This was the perspective that Dr. Christopher West, Th.D., had before he discovered a radical teaching pronounced by the highest leader in the Church.

We discuss the philosophical background behind Pope John Paul II’s teachings, the role of pleasure in sex, if there is ever a good time for contraception, celibacy for the kingdom, and much more. by The Lila Rose Podcast
