Why Do You Admit You’ve Failed Sometimes in Your Book The Purity Principle?

article December 9, 2022
Consistent victory over sin is possible in this area as with any other sin, with God’s help and empowerment as we partner with His Holy Spirit (Colossians 1:29). But this side of Heaven, we still face temptation, and yes, sometimes we do fail our Lord and Savior by sinning.

Is Masturbation a Sin If You’re Not Lusting, and It’s an Ingrained Habit Used to Fall Asleep?

article July 7, 2022
I think a question that could really get to the heart of this issue and provide some clarity is asking yourself, “Does this act point me to Jesus and help me glorify God in my life?”

Sexual Sin Is Not Inevitable

article February 25, 2022
Satan paints a target on each of our chests. But we have a choice about whether Satan will hit that target. Sexual sin is NOT inevitable. Many Christians are seeking God’s will in any number of areas. A good place to start is with God’s directly stated will: “It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality” (1 Thessalonians 4:3).

Comments on Ephesians 4-5 about Sexual Immorality, Transgender Confusion, and LGBTQ Issues

article August 2, 2021
I shared the following notes with a pastor friend who was preparing a message addressing sexual immorality and gender confusion. It’s a different approach, a verse by verse brief commentary on a passage.

Was There Any Value in Purity Culture or Was It All Just a Mistake?

article June 21, 2021
The problem is certainly not purity itself! “It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality” (1 Thessalonians 4:3). However, it’s true that one of the weaknesses of the purity movement was the false belief that following a formula of courtship instead of dating will buy you or guarantee you a great marriage.

Does Using VidAngel to Screen Offensive Content out of Movies Still Involve Financially Supporting Hollywood?

article June 9, 2021
A reader wrote: "I ran across your blog while researching VidAngel. I’m a Christian, and a mom to seven. I’m thinking VidAngel is an amazing answer for us, in wanting to enjoy so many stories without the smut. But I had a friend ask, 'Aren’t we still supporting those who make movies with all this content we wish to avoid?'"

We Must Learn the Skills to Resist Sexual Temptation

video May 3, 2021
Satan “scouts us out” and knows only too well the chinks in the armor of every Christian. His aim is deadly, he excels at tailor-made temptations, and it is at our points of greatest vulnerability that he will attack.

video April 28, 2021
The Colson Center produced a video with Christopher Yuan answering the question, “Is Being Gay Genetic?” for their What Would You Say? series. This is a terrific answer.

Setting God-Honoring Boundaries for Purity: Advice for Women from Wise Christ Followers

article April 19, 2021
The following advice comes from a Revive Our Hearts conversation between Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth and Mary Kassian, two sisters I greatly appreciate. Though this is geared towards women, the principles are applicable to both men and women.

Final Thoughts on Embracing Sexual Purity and Preventing Disaster

article February 24, 2021
Every sad tale of immorality among Christian leaders over the last several years has been a shot fired across the bow. But from my viewpoint, almost nothing has changed. We don’t talk about it—or we say how horrible it is each time a leader falls and then move on, not bothering to change anything. God calls us to something far better.
