PART-3 of our 4-PART Celibacy Series!! -- Sis! Sometimes we've got to stop and just ask ourselves what's guiding our actions and our decisions as it relates to our sexual behavior (or lack thereof). Do we know WHO we are? How valuable and precious we are in the eyes of God? Are we operating out of brokenness? Past hurts or abuse? Abandonment issues? Societal pressures or influence? Looking for love in all the wrong places? Looking for a man to be what only God can truly be for you? -OR- Are we clear and level headed? Rooted in the Word of God and operating out of our HEALED & WHOLE identity in Christ? Knowing not only WHO you are - but WHOSE you are! A daughter of the King! That RARE & VIRTUOUS one! "Who can find a virtuous wife (or woman)? For her worth is far above rubies." - Proverbs 31:10 On Episode 6 / Season 2, the question is posed - "Sis, are you celibate or just single?" - LaCrea & Lauren discuss the importance of setting clear BOUNDARIES for yourSELF, knowing who you are in the eyes of God (your identity!), and getting clear on what a man after God's own heart does and does not look like!

Episode 2 in our Celibacy Series!! -- Sis! In a world that tells you you need to "test drive it" and "everyone else is doing it", when we're living by the Word we understand that we are NOT "everyone else" - we are called, chosen, and SET APART. God has a plan for us, and His plan is for our protection and full of purpose!
