Just a couple basic statements about sex from your pastor.
Sex is good.
It is a good gift of our good God. The attraction we have for one another, the desire to grow closer to another, is built into us, a good part of who we are. God created us man and woman with all the complementary elements and creative tension built into that relationship, and God called his creation good. The feelings we have for one another are not bad. They add spice to life.
