So it’s Tuesday here at the Genesischurch.tv offices and things are pretty normal. I’m working on the set for next week today… trust that this weekend’s set is going to be amazing. We’re changing it up a bit… all I’ll say is candles, nice. Oh, that reminds me, today is RE:WORSHIP day! Afteranother slight delay in taping I will be posting how this past weekend’s worship went.
Right now we’re deep in the heart of our Best Sex Ever series with week 3 on the horizon.
It’s been quite an experience. I don’t think I’ve heard some many Christians complaining so much in my life. I guess I have a hard time understanding why church folk want to label sex as inherently evil. Sometimes I even wonder if people truly realize who the author and creator of sex is. God made it, whatever God makes is good… it’s just gone to crap in our hands. Yes, the world has completely misused this gift that God has given, but does that mean we need to throw it under the rug, label it shameful… sinful, and call it a day. NO!
It’s time that the church wake up and tackle the issues we face as believers. If we want our kids to grow up with an understanding of the truth shouldn’t this be included? Sex between a man and woman is intimate and it is a private thing. But, it’s not bad, and we need to let our kids know that! We need to teach them what scripture says about sex, who it’s for, and when it should happen. If we don’t start doing it then kids will continue to get sex advice from their “friends” and everyone and anything else they come in contact with. Please don’t ask me at what age you should begin… but just know that sex is everywhere, and today could be the day that little Billy goes to school, sits down in his and or 3rd grade class, and has a conversation with Timmy the neighbor boy…
I realize I started rambling off the topic of Tuesday, but it has just been urking me all month. That someone could see a billboard and think it’s going to lead to some irreversible damage to their child that will take them on a slippery slope to sin and having sex… When our kids are faced with the issue of sex we need to immediately explain in a way they can understand and not just tell them it’s bad, don’t talk about it.
If anyone should talk about sex it’s us… it’s believer’s, it’s God’s people. He gave it to us as a gift and we should teach and pass on what it means, where it came from, and how to handle it.
Ok, that’s my rant for the day. I’m going to get back to my set for next week. Be posting again soon!
Cheers!

Good stuff.
So, it makes me laugh that you start all of your entries with the word ’so’.
Teehee.

You will make a great parent one day maybe soon. Well not really soon because never mind…The real reason I am writing is to say parents should talk to their kids about sex the first time they ask what it is. If you as the parent don’t tell them when they start asking then the will probably find out from “Timmy”.
