0:00.0	Welcome to 10-minute Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.7	I'm Tanya Wilmeth.
0:12.7	Last week, over 100 girls spent Valentine's Day evening in a church gym transformed into a prom-worthy dance room, with whole bouquets of flowers adorning the tables,
0:24.1	banners hung, and pink plates and napkins set with a place card for every single girl in attendance.
0:30.6	Grown men acted as servers pouring Shirley temples upon request.

1:32.0	This is the tragedy we live in. Fellow believers, we find our hope in doing for one what we wish
1:37.7	we could do for all. In doing for a group of middle school girls what we want the world to know
1:43.1	about God's love. Those are
1:45.4	extreme examples, but what about the everyday hookup culture that dominates our college campuses
1:50.5	and music lyrics? What about the widespread belief that modern women enjoy casual sex, or that
1:57.6	they should enjoy it without attachment.
