Welcome back to the Coffee and Bible Time podcast.

For those that may be listening for the first time, our podcast is an offshoot from our main platform YouTube.

Our channel is called Coffee and Bible Time where our goal is to help people delight in God's word.

We also have a website and storefront with Bible studies, prayer journals, and more. I'm Mentor Mama, and today we are going to be talking about sexual purity now this is not going to be a

lecture about honoring God's design for sex before marriage but rather a frank open

discussion of how God can transform lives that are deeply rooted in the pleasures of the world

to actually a state of realizing that sexual purity is beautiful to the one who treasures God above

all. And I believe this type of zeal for God can be seen in the scriptures from the

perspective of the psalmist in Psalm 119, starting at verse 33, who said, teach me, oh Lord,

the way of your statutes, and I will keep it to the end.

Give me understanding that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart.

Lead me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it.

Incline my heart to your testimonies and not to selfish gain.

Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things and give me life in your ways.

Confirm to your servant your promise that you may be feared.

Turn away the reproach that I dread for your rules are good. And behold, I long for your precepts.

In your righteousness, give me life. I love that passage. And it's an inspiration for me to truly

lean in on God's word.

And also, I read an interesting article by a woman named Adrienne Siegel,

which I will actually include in the links,

that she so beautifully details eight lessons about what she wishes she had known about purity 40 years earlier.

And yes, I said 40.
