In Defense of “Sex Sermons”

This post was written for Monday Morning Insight.  To read the full post, go here
In the last 400 years, culture has slowly (or quickly, depending on the decade) slipped away God’s original purpose of sex. In fact, it could be argued that we’ve always been slipping, to some degree or another, away from God’s purpose of sex. However, in the last half-century it has become massively easier to engage a free sexual lifestyle, most of which can be kept incredibly private if you want it to be. Since the internet’s conception, it has become that much easier to view sexual material, meet anonymous sexual partners, engage in sexual chat, etc. All the while, the church has sat back, silent, content to let the secular culture educate Christians on sexuality.

Enter the modern church.

There are some churches throughout America and the world who have finally taken it upon themselves to address the issue of sexuality in a very frank, and sometimes graphic manner. Is it safe for children? Nope. Is it necessary for adults? Yep. Are there churches and ministries who are gonna criticize? You betcha!

I want to do a small “point-counterpoint” post here and address some of the most common “arguments” against “sex sermons” and hopefully shed some light on not only the validity of sex sermons, but the NEED for them.
