More Than Sex
Week 1: Biblical Sex Ed 101
In the Scriptures, we find a perspective on sex that is vastly different than you see in the media. A perspective that won’t let us get away with some puritanical repression of sex nor will it let us get away with the self-indulgent, consumeristic, individualistic, animalistic view of sex embraced in the Western world today. It's a perspective worth trying out.
Week 2: Biblical Sex Ed (Part 2)
Because sex is so great, it has the potential to be truly wretched. It can draw people together, create new life, and allow us to reflect the image of God in a way that few other things can. Or, it can tear us apart, hurt us at the deepest levels, and dehumanize us in a way that almost nothing else can. In this message, we look at this paradox of sex.
