“Sex For Christians!”

Sex was God’s idea! Yes, as strange as it may sound, sex was God’s idea—not Hugh Heffner or the sociologist Kinsey. You might be surprised that God created sex and that the Bible is notsilent about the subject. In fact, it is anything but silent on the subject. The Bible has a lot to say about how God intends this important part of our lives to be happy and fulfilled. As well it should – because this is certainly an area where human beings can become very mixed up andconfused.

I am on a series of messages about sex for Christians. And I am talking about it in such a way that a junior high-age boy can be sitting next to his grandmother and both of them realize that God loves them – and in fact understands them more than they understand themselves. I will have help from some of the leaders in our church to teach about this scientifically and in-depth biblically. I expect it to be a life-changing series and yes... singles are welcome (and encouraged) to attend. I think that someone recovering from a divorce could benefit from this topic as well as a couple waiting for marriage. I expect to be armed with the fruit of the Holy Spirit so that those who might disagree with “Christian concepts” of sex, can know that they are notbeing spoken down to, but will hear the message in love. I also believe that this series can help revive a struggling marriage and that every young person, who is not yet married, should hear these lofty ideas about love and sex – God’s way.

Don’t miss this opportunity as we study the love chapter and talk about the depth of what the Bible has to say about sex.

Your friend for the rest of my life,

Pastor Tim White
