Found Family with MaryB. Safrit
Gender Roles and Singleness After Purity Culture (feat. Kelly Wolfe)
TW: Sexual Violence was mentioned around the 10-minute mark.
Kelly is a delight, and in today's episode, you'll hear us talk about:
- how to let our beliefs and desires evolve
- how purity culture still affects the way we treat singles
- the power of challenging gender roles and learning to take up space
- and why we need to give ourselves room to get things wrong
As a heads up, this week's episode contains a brief description of sexual violence around the 10-and-a-half-minute mark. Kelly gives a trigger warning before getting into it, but take care listening if that will be distressing for you to hear.
Kelly is a 35-year-old, consciously uncoupled (single), lifelong Texan. She is passionate about public ministry through social media and through her website, LetItMatter.com. Kelly is the creator, producer, and host of the Let It Matter Podcast, which seeks to make space for, honor, and name what matters — including everything from the Church, the Bible, faith, & theology to mental health to sex & sexuality to issues of social justice. She was also a guest cohost on the Where Do We Go From Here? podcast from July-December 2022. Kelly has been featured on several podcasts, including Interfaith Voices, as well as print media articles (WORLD Magazine, Christianity Today, and USA Today) around the topics of single adulthood, dating, and sexuality.

The Single Christian's Church Survival Guide isn’t a book about how to get un-single. It's about how to navigate a culture obsessed with marriage as a human who is not married. Let’s face it. Singles experience a lot of weird situations in the church. From the unwanted advice about our relationship status to the unspoken pressures of singleness, it can feel like no one knows what to do with us. These experiences are so common, we might start to wonder if we’re the weird ones. Head to Amazon and get your copy now!
