Sex.Life

Sex.Life Yes, you read that right.  I'm preaching about sex   this Sunday.  But don't worry. This will be a "P.G." rated   sermon.  In fact, I suspect parents who have not yet had a talk with   their children will want to have their children in church this Sunday.    Likewise, older adults, single adults, teenagers, newly married, long-time   married, and really everyone needs to explore with us what the Bible has to   say about human sexuality.  Our culture is so sexualized yet so   repressed that we have created an enigma about sex.  We want to talk   about it, but only in salacious manners.  We ignore the deeper issues   surrounding sex such as intimacy, love, commitment, and faith.  We also   ignore the immense value and spirituality of celibacy in singleness and   fidelity in marriage.     Jesus was not silent on the issue of marriage, sexuality, and celibacy, but   for most of us the only thing we know about these topics are what we've read   in magazines, seen in media, or learned by first-hand experience over the   years.  If we are going to be faithful Christians we must begin to   understand the issues surrounding human sexuality.  No matter our age,   we should be growing in our understanding of this God-given gift of sex.     We hope you will join us this Sunday at First Church OKC as we delve deeper   into what Jesus says about sex, how our sexuality is closely tied to our   spirituality, and how we are called to live as faithful Christians in a   sexualized world.  We hope to see you in worship this Sunday at 10:45 am   at First Church OKC.
