Purified: A Double Feature Event for Teens & Adults
This special retreat-style event brings together Love or Lust? and Gender & the Theology of the Body for an evening designed to help families discover God’s beautiful plan for love, identity, and the human person.
Love or Lust? invites parents and teens (ages 13+) to explore God’s plan for love in a way that opens the door to meaningful, ongoing conversations at home. Through Jason’s renowned talk, Love or Lust?, humor and down-to-earth practicality remove the awkwardness often surrounding conversations about chastity and relationships. Families will leave with a clear understanding of the good news of chastity, a healthy sense of self-worth, and hope—along with the freedom to start again, no matter their past.
After a short break, Gender & the Theology of the Body continues the evening by addressing one of the most pressing questions facing teens and families today:
What is the meaning of sex, gender, and the human body? At a time when masculinity and femininity are being questioned like never before, this talk reveals how our bodies—created male and female—communicate our identity and our God-given calling. This session is designed for both teens and adults and provides a thoughtful, faithful framework for discussing these challenging topics together.
The evening concludes with Eucharistic Adoration accompanied by praise and worship, and the opportunity for the Sacrament of Reconciliation, transforming these talks into a true retreat experience. Families are invited to encounter the source of purity, healing, and renewal—Jesus Christ—and to leave renewed, strengthened, and united.
