0:00.0	Welcome to the Bethel Church Sermon of the Week. We hope you enjoy this message by Chris
0:09.4	Valet. For more information about this podcast and other resources, visit iBethel.org.
0:18.4	Well, let's pray. Holy Spirit, we thank you for this day. We pray, God, that you would just
0:31.1	release Revelation on us today. It would be practical Revelation in which we can shepherd
0:37.3	and our children into sexual health in Jesus' name. Amen. Well, we're talking about, obviously,
0:44.9	we're talking about sexuality today. I hope that you came ready for that. And I want to just give
0:51.1	you some steps to developing a healthy sexual culture. And first of all, I just want to say that
0:57.9	Hummy understand what God created sex, that there was sex before there was sin. And how many of you
1:05.1	know that God, when God said, be fruitful, multiply, He gave you a sex drive. How many of you believe that?
1:11.0	The rest of you, where did you get yours? The devil gave me mine. When God said, be fruitful and
1:18.4	multiply, He gave you a sex drive. Now, the question is, what does it mean to have a sex drive?

1:28.9	different one. My definition is it means you want to have sex with somebody. And the goal of a healthy
1:37.5	sexual culture isn't to get rid of your sex drive. It's to learn to manage your appetite.
1:43.0	So part of the challenge we have in Christian Dome is that we often shame sex.
1:49.8	Hummy, you know that the world perverts sex. Religion tempts the shame. But the kingdom celebrates it.
1:57.2	And so my first point is celebrate your sexuality because God actually is the one who created it.
2:03.0	And it's really important that we learn how to embrace our sexuality. Do you know why you have a
2:09.0	sex drive years before God wants you to have sex inside of marriage? To torture you. Sorry,
2:17.8	it's a wrong point. I got the wrong point. Because the value of your virginity is in the blood,
2:25.6	sweat, and tears it tastes to get your virginity from the battlefield all the way to the hymns sweet.
2:31.4	So on the night you lay with your lover, you have something to give them that you had the fight to keep.
