We are beginning a new series called “Biblical Sexuality” this week. In our sex-obsessed world, how do we at followers of Jesus navigate the contradictory messages of sex being everything and nothing at the same time? Previous Christian generations grew up with the message: “Just don’t do it or talk about it” and that was largely ineffective, so is there a better approach? Does the Bible present a more compelling and beautiful picture of human sexuality than our culture? Find out in this six week series that we hope will light your path forward and clearly mark True North, starting with “Does God Matter?”
