A provocative reading of Paul's missionary motivations, with many conclusions I'm very sympathetic to. As a non-missionary, there were times were I felt that the consistent framing in terms of global missions unnecessarily narrowed the audience to a ...more

Quotes by Zachary Wagner  (?)

“Both parties can consent to one-sided sex, but that should not be the bar set for a healthy relationship.

Just because it's not rape doesn't mean it isn't dehumanizing.”
Zachary Wagner, Non-Toxic Masculinity: Recovering Healthy Male Sexuality

“Why is the superficial, legalistic approach of purity culture often so ineffective in curbing toxic masculinity in Christian men? Because it deals in a truncated, false gospel. Rules and regulations for sexual behavior don't make men new. Rather, the renewal of our minds and bodies by the Holy Spirit is the solution to the broken masculinity that plagues our culture and churches.”
Zachary Wagner, Non-Toxic Masculinity: Recovering Healthy Male Sexuality

“The male body in a state of arousal is a wonderful thing. There’s so much vitality. There’s a type of anticipation, expectation. There’s a hope for a transcendent experience of relationship, of pleasure, of life. There’s the potential for new life, as well as the potential for a beautiful type of risk, vulnerability, and adventure. When your body experiences sexual desire, it’s doing exactly what it was made to do. That’s a good thing. And it’s nothing to be ashamed of. It’s wonderful and beautiful. It’s a gift to you and to the world.”
