Believe it or not, the Bible has a lot to say about sex.
From the beginning of Genesis through the end of Revelation, we see sex celebrated and recommended. It is a good gift given to mankind for our pleasure, to build intimacy, and to reflect the Gospel.
But God intended it to be a gift enjoyed within boundaries.
Sex is intended to be enjoyed within the confine of marriage.
That said, it’s not always that simple. We have plenty of questions around the topic of sex, like, “how far is too far?” We wonder, “is oral sex actually considered sex?” And, “how does the Bible define sexual immorality?”
We try to cover all of these in a series of posts on sex. We hope they’re helpful and that they stir your heart for Jesus.
