I'm raising money for a coaching cohort that will help me build a shame-free Christian sexuality education ministry designed to help churches and ministry settings move beyond purity culture and harmful silence.

More Info

Hey everyone!

My name is Jenna Couch, I’m a pastor, wife, mother and activist and I need your help to found a new ministry. Next week I am beginning a coaching cohort called The Queer Career Reinvention Lab where I will be receiving personalized coaching, career counseling, and accountability and support. And why am I doing this? Because I’m launching a faith-based sex education ministry focused on shame-free instruction and body positivity to help people heal the rift that so many people of faith feel between their sexuality and their faith. Please give and give generously to help me bring this ministry to life. Give $30, $60, $100 or more to help make this training happen?

The end goal, then, is to use this training to develop an inclusive, faith-based sexuality education ministry that equips me to create and teach shame-free, body-positive resources for ministry settings. Whether through adapting existing frameworks or building an original curriculum of my own, my vision is to offer compassionate, affirming education that helps youth and adults explore sexuality, relationships, identity, and faith without fear or shame. This work will focus on helping people heal the divide between spirituality and sexuality by creating spaces where both can be honored as sacred, healthy parts of human life.

Thanks for your consideration, and please give and give GENEROUSLY!
