| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Leslie Lutty, host of the Set Apart podcast, Biblical Encouragement for Women. |
| 0:05.3 | We are in our Honorable Womanhood series, and in this episode, we are going to be talking |
| 0:09.9 | about learning how to guard what is sacred to God. |
| 0:12.7 | And this applies to both pre-marriage relationships and singleness, but also various other aspects |
| 0:18.2 | of our lives, because guarding the sacred is not something that is very common |
| 0:22.2 | in modern Christianity and in our lives as modern women. So we're going to dive deep into that |
| 0:27.1 | biblical principle of guarding what is sacred. Before we jump in, I wanted to let you know that our |
| 0:32.0 | 26 Ellersley discipleship programs are open for registration at Ellersley.com where you click the link in |
| 0:38.7 | this description. If you are looking for a season to just become grounded in your faith and be really |
| 0:44.3 | edified by fellowship with like-minded believers and go deeper with Jesus, this is an amazing opportunity. |
| 0:50.5 | We have two five-week programs next summer as well as a week-long program if you're not able to get away for the full five weeks. So I would encourage you to check that out. Also, if you'd like to take any of the truths deeper that we're talking about today, I have a new online course called Honorable Womanhood, and you can check that out at setapart.org or the link in this description. So let's dive into guarding what is sacred. It says in 2 Timothy 114, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us, the treasure which has been entrusted to you. |
| 1:16.9 | We think about the different things that God has entrusted to us. |
| 1:20.0 | Our heart, our emotions, the amazing, unique way that God works in our lives, how he speaks to us, our hopes, our fears, our struggles, |
| 1:29.7 | our own personal journey with Christ. All of those things are sacred. And so often those things |
| 1:34.9 | are just put out on display for the world to see in today's world. And yet God puts a high |
| 1:39.9 | value on guarding and protecting what is sacred. So when it comes to singleness, I feel like a lot of |
| 1:45.3 | Christian single women struggle with that pressure to try to get a guy's attention and find the right |
| 1:52.5 | person and maybe I should do online dating. Maybe I should put myself out there a little bit more |
| 1:58.2 | so I can get noticed. And there's so many books and blogs |
| 2:01.0 | and opinions that have surfaced in the last couple of decades, even within the church, that |
| 2:05.7 | have really attempted to give Christian single woman helpful advice for how to get a guy, |
| 2:10.8 | how to be noticed by a guy, how to finally take that next step towards marriage. And as we've |
