Raising Kids in a Sexualized Culture: Laurie Krieg
How do we parent well in a world that feels increasingly chaotic and confusing for our children? Today, Gabe and Rebekah welcome their author, speaker, and professor Dr. Laurie Krieg to the podcast for a deep and necessary conversation on navigating the most challenging questions our kids are facing today.
As a mother of three and a specialist in human sexuality for over a decade, Laurie brings a unique blend of professional expertise and gospel-centered grace to the table. This conversation dives into the heart of Laurie and her husband Matt’s book, Raising Wise Kids in a Sexually Broken World. Together, they discuss how to move away from a posture of fear or legalism and toward a foundation of security built on God’s original design.
Whether you are navigating the toddler years or the onboarding of the teen stage, this episode offers a roadmap for engaging your children’s hearts with intentionality and truth.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- The Act One Perspective: Why starting with God’s good creation, rather than just the brokenness of sin, is the key to calming parental anxiety and giving kids a beautiful vision to hold onto.
- Soil and Wind: A powerful metaphor for how parents can provide the good soil of a nurturing home while allowing for age-appropriate wind to help children build deep spiritual roots.
- Moving Past Silence and Legalism: Practical ways to engage difficult topics like gender and sexuality without retreating into silence or relying on rigid rules.
- Proactive Parenting: How to stay ahead of the questions your children will inevitably face in the world, from the playground to the screen.
