Denzel Washington just gave an incredible commencement speech at New Orleans' Dillard University. His main advice for the graduates? "Put God first in everything you do."
As part of her "WHOA That's Good "Podcast, Sadie Robertson Huff sat down with her mom, Korie Robertson, to discuss what most "would shy away from talking about—especially in the church." Sadie and Korie had an honest conversation about sex and purity.
I don’t have a problem with what the church is telling Christians to do and not do regarding sex. I have a problem with why we are often telling Christians not do these things.
"I never understood the value of my purity until I freely gave it away. We never really discussed boundaries…I mean, why would we? He was a Christian. I was a Christian."
"Recently, my family walked past a Victoria’s Secret store (which was across from the kids’ playground). I was behind everyone, helping our youngest child keep up, and couldn’t help but notice how the older kids’ eyes were instinctively drawn to look at the pictures of nearly nude women hanging in the window."
"We dress our tiny tots in shorts that cut into their rear and post on social media funny videos of them dancing like an adult pop star. We laugh and laugh as they twerk, but it’s not cute. Not to me."
"I had made many commitments to make drastic changes to my life before this day, but those empty words often resulted in nothing. I continued living my life the only way that I knew how."
