Is "Sex" A Dirty Word? Series

Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Jan 18, 2007

Why can’t we talk about sex in the context of Christian marriage? Does sex belong to the world or to God? Where does our sexuality come from and when are desires a good thing?

IS “SEX” A DIRTY WORD? Some time ago I watched a movie called “Arabesque” in which Gregory Peck plays a stodgy professor of hieroglyphics. He is explaining the various symbols on a chart and how to interpret them. The lecture is dry and anything but captivating. In fact a young man is nearly ...read more

Three ways that Jesus showed kindness.

Regurgitationalistics

Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Nov 27, 2019

Have you noticed that we tend to get all caught up communicating and sharing thoughts, ideas, “news and information” and that we easily fall into the trap of just being talking-heads… mostly... just regurgitating thoughts and ideas, but not actually contributing.

Man has never invented a single thing (as of this writing)… ever never… nothing new… never… not one new element has been introduced into life. All we’ve done is ‘assemble’ things to be something else, and we call it ‘inventing’. Semantics, I know… but our thoughts and the many things we voice ...read more

The Whole Armor Of God: An Exposition Of Ephesians 6:10-20
