This afternoon I visited Porthcawl Comprehensive School and addressed 200 sixth-formers (Seniors, for our USA readers) on the subject of Christianity and Sexuality. Entitled 'Christians don't like sex..we love it' basically the 45 minute presentation covered a Biblical view of sex and sexuality. It's good fun to present but I have to make myself vulnerable and take some risks in order to really communicate. Looking at the faces of some of the girls and guys in the audience, I can see that they are hearing this stuff too late to avoid being hurt by, or feeling guilty about, their sexual experimentation. Sexuality, self-worth, relationships, are such a central part of life, and I'm thankful for a valuable opportunity to offer to these teenagers a different model than the one that media and culture persuades them to adopt.
God's words
- 1Chr. 16:31Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let them say among the nations, “The LORD reigns!”
