Sex, God, & the Ache for More
Desire isn't the problem—it's the pointer.
What if your deepest longings aren't something to suppress, but signposts to follow? Join us for an 8-week journey through the Song of Songs—an ancient love poem that hints at something surprising: your ache for intimacy isn't an accident. It's a clue about what… and WHO you were made for.
Week 1: Biblical Sex Ed: What Your Youth Group Never Told You
Most of us were told what not to do with sex.
Very few of us were ever told what sex is actually for.
In this message, we'll revisit a question my friend David asked in youth group: "What is sex?" It sounds simple, but the answer is anything but.
Drawing from Genesis 1-2, 1 Timothy, and Colossians, we'll explore four overlooked truths: sex is essential, sex is God's idea, sex is an icon, and sex is a signpost. Along the way, you'll have a chance to wrestle with why sex matters so much, why it wounds us so deeply, and what it's designed to point us toward.
This isn't about new rules. It's about a vision of sexuality that's both ancient and desperately needed today—one that refuses puritanical shame and consumeristic self-indulgence in equal measure.
If you've ever felt torn between following Jesus and your sexuality—this message is for you.
