The Christian Leaders Who Preach Sex Positivity

Jo Neufeld, a 40-year-old living in Manitoba, Canada, used to feel that she was sex positive despite being Christian. Then, about 10 years ago, she started following Twitter accounts like those of Kevin Garcia, a gay pastor based in Atlanta, and other Christians who talked openly about sex. Neufeld said the accounts introduced her to "ideas around God wanting pleasure for us" and helped her to reconcile her Christianity with her sex positivity: "I've found examples of people living out holy sexuality. And for me, that has been about slowly embracing that I was created for sexual flourishing."
