#6 “The Gospel Sex Talk” by Aaron Daily
We live in a sex saturated culture and our youth are being bombarded with lies every day. The questions on every youth leader’s mind are: how do I talk to my youth about sex? How do I overcome the lies they are hearing? How do I teach them about sex, with grace as the motive and not fear? How do I teach it if I myself messed up in the past?
The gospel-centered youth leaders knows that their only hope is Jesus. A godly youth worker will not run in fear from their responsibility, but will stand covered in the grace of Jesus. Therefore, they flood their ministries with prayer, grace, and truth and are always pointing their youth to Jesus as the answer. These are the Youth Workers who need teaching tools and help. So, here are some notes from our webinar, “The Gospel Sex Talk.”
-
More than 1,000,000 abortions are performed in America each year. 65% by Christians.
-
Grace gives us more power to respond. Grace=power=truth.
-
The only thing that is going to draw our youth from the power of sex is for them to realize that there is a greater power and that is the power of God.
-
Don’t try to make them hate what they see around them. Show them the more beautiful picture that God has created for sex.
