Sex and Sexuality

June 27, 2022

Culture’s view of sex and it’s message to us is that sex is no different than any other drive, interest, or desire within you. Therefore, sex should be pursued and satisfied however you please. One of the main messages that kids are being taught is that sex is a natural drive and it’s for your own pleasure, so pursue it any way you like. But what is God’s vision for sex? Did He want people to only be concerned about pleasing themselves?

Identity and Sexuality

June 21, 2022

Culture is discipling us regarding sexuality; it’s teaching an LGBTQ+ view and is demanding that you believe, accept and embrace these views as normal, good and healthy. All of those letters describe ways to identify your sexuality and your sexual practices: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, +. The + stands for the dozens and dozens of ways people can now identify according to the current mental health professionals, CDC, the Academy of Pediatrics and others. How did all this gender confusion come about? What does Genesis 1&2 tell us about how humankind was created? Image used under license from Freestock.com

Deviation and Sexuality

June 13, 2022

What is the cause of sexual deviation? Where does it come from and why is it so pervasive in our society? There’s so much diversity in what people now say is acceptable, right, and true. Some would say what we’re talking about this month isn’t deviation because they believe it’s perfectly fine and in line with their way of thinking. To them, it’s just one of many options because they believe there’s more than one variation when it comes to sex. Where do we go to find answers to these important questions and how do we know who’s right? Image used under license from Freestock.com

Relativism & Sexuality

June 6, 2022

During pride month, we are barraged with multitudes of LGBTQ+ messages in the form of tv commercials, radio ads, songs, movies, athletic events, parades, flags, bumper stickers, speeches by political leaders, and on and on. The messaging will urge you and attempt to convince you to embrace LGBTQ+ sexuality as normal, good, healthy and even something that you yourself should pursue. These messages will be delivered as though it is the truth about sexuality. The question is, are those ideas really the truth? Or do they miss the mark and actually lead you on a path away from truth and toward something that ultimately is not good for your life? Image used under license from Freestock.com

INTERNALLY STRONG / EXTERNALLY FOCUSED

When we say Internally Strong this is what we mean:
Moving closer to Jesus  which happens as we seek to: know Him and His Word, be transformed into His likeness, do what we are made by Him to do and connect with others in meaningful relationships in the way He designed us.

When we say Externally Focused this is what we mean:
Engaging others around us, locally, regionally and globally in personal, small group and corporate action to bring the whole Gospel to the whole person.
