Bible Text: Genesis 1:27-28 | Preacher: Nathan Herrlin | Series: Culture Shock | God is very much Pro-Sex.
4 Reasons God made us sexual creatures:

Physical Pleasure – Proverbs 5:18-19, Song of Solomon 2:3

Procreation – Genesis 1:28
Relational Intimacy – Genesis 2:18-225
A Spiritual Object Lesson – Ephesians 5:31-32

MYTH: It’s too late for me; sexual sin is so powerful, nothing can loosen its grip on my life.
