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.

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.

Counting Sin’s Costs Can Help Foster Sexual Purity

article February 22, 2021
I met with a man who had been a prominent ministry leader until he committed immorality. I asked, “What could have been done to prevent this?” He paused only a moment, then said with haunting pain, “If only I had really known, really thought through what it would cost me, my family, ministry, and my Lord, I honestly believe I never would have done it.”

Christian Leaders Need Accountability to Guard Our Lives and Ministries

article February 19, 2021
My next few blogs will follow up on my three previous posts and continue to allude sometimes to what happened with Ravi Zacharias. Why? So that as Christian leaders and laypeople, we can learn from it and avoid sexual immorality ourselves.
