Brenda Marie Davies
"The problem was, because purity is an idol (a validated and worshiped idol), I didn’t know who or what I’d be without my totem. My Christianity depended on purity.”
Going to a conservative Christian church when she was young, Brenda Marie Davies heard a consistent message - save yourself for marriage - that instilled in her fear and shame about sex. But after moving to Los Angeles at 19 and finding herself suddenly exposed to a world far outside her comfort zone, she was forced to wrestle with the power and perversity of Christian purity culture.
On Her Knees chronicles Brenda’s spiritual journey over the course of a decade in LA through marriage, divorce, unlikely friendship, and sexual exploration. Through it all, she began tearing down the false idol of purity while refusing to abandon her faith. Told with raw honesty, sans obligatory shame, this is a story for anyone who wonders if it’s possible to love God without fearing sex, in all its shades of grey.

We are all learning what we misunderstood, didn’t realize, put up with and sacrificed through the “Me too” movement and how important it is to share the experiences we may have thought were OK but damaged our spirits. Your book has opened the conversations to healing one another. You bared your soul to enlighten our understanding of things that we were unable to look at in a healthy way. My eyes are now open and processing my own life experiences and I have you to thank for that. I feel that women of all ages can relate and see themselves somewhere in this book. As your mother I am so proud of all that you are doing on your YouTube channel “God is Grey” and all other platforms. You are a remarkable woman! All my love and support. Mom
