COWSERT
God, Sex, and Rich People
OUT NOW!
What happens when an Evangelical pastor's daughter moves from Branson, Missouri to New York City?
A collapse of identity that begins a journey of figuring out faith, fucking, and the 1%. With humor and raw honesty, God, Sex, and Rich People follows Mattie Jo as she takes off her purity ring, navigates public transportation, and tries to have good sex without hating herself. From dating her doorman, to sex with a pop star, and living with millionaires, watch Mattie Jo hilariously fumble and find her footing as she redefines her sexuality and spirituality in the city that never sleeps (and never stops sleeping around).

I am CACKLING. I could not be enjoying this more. - Erin Moon, best-selling author of "I've Got Questions" and host of the Faith Adjacent podcast
"Mattie Jo puts into words what countless women have felt. Part memoir, part history, and part discussion she takes us on a journey to discover what we want in love and in creating a more equitable world of mutual respect. I laughed, I cried, and I recognized myself in many of these moments.
