Dannah Gresh

Dannah Gresh (born 1967) is a best-selling Christian author and public speaker on the topic of sexual theology and Christian parenting. She uses social science and medical research to defend a conservative position on relationships and gender. Gresh's TEDTalk proposed that the cultural value of tolerance be equally applied to those choosing to abstain from sex until marriage. She is a frequent guest on Christian mediums such as Focus on the Family, FamilyLife Today, and Revive Our Hearts.

Gresh is the creator of Secret Keeper Girl, a connecting event for 8-12 year old girls and their mothers. The tour makes stops in about 120 cities nationwide each year, during which 20-something women and seasoned moms teach modesty and true beauty through interactive experiences. Dannah also offers an event for mothers who are seeking to connect to their teen daughter called Pure Freedom. In 2017, she partnered with her husband Bob Gresh to develop Born To Be Brave, a father/son connection experience. Over 500,000 have attended her live events, and her parent/child published curriculum has been used for over 4 million at-home experiences.

Gresh is the author of over 30 books. "And the Bride Wore White: Seven Secrets to Sexual Purity" and Lies Young Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets Them Free which she co-authored with Nancy Leigh DeMoss are her best-sellers.^[1]
