About this listen

Sex 101, in its second season, features The Haunted Skin: Early Christianity and the Incarnational Redemption of Touch, Part 2, a continuation of a historically grounded and reflective exploration of how early Christian thought shaped enduring views of the body, intimacy, and physical connection. This episode examines the deep tension between suspicion of the flesh and the radical theological affirmation of incarnation, where touch is reframed not as corruption, but as a vessel of meaning, presence, and relational truth. Drawing from theology, cultural history, and lived human experience, the discussion reveals how ancient beliefs about purity, desire, and embodiment continue to influence modern discomforts around closeness and vulnerability. Rather than approaching the topic provocatively, the episode offers a thoughtful, respectful inquiry into touch as a fundamental human language—one that carries spiritual, emotional, and relational significance across centuries and into contemporary life.
