Sexual Immoraity In America

Contributed by Steve Greene on Feb 4, 2020

One of the clearest indicators of rebellion against God is the blatant rejection of God's guidelines for sex. When we sin sexually, we hurt ourselves, we hurt others, and we break the heart of God.

We are ALL broken people born into a broken world. The evidence of that brokenness often shows up most obviously in the area of our sexuality.
