Contemporary society is obsessed with sexuality and lust. Our magazines are dripping with it; our television programs are filled with it; much of our music is nothing short of a series of odes to lust covered in the veneer of love. What is our Christian response? How do we honor God with our lives and bodies? Jesus knew how important sexuality is, how it can destroy life or enhance life. He spoke to the issue in the Sermon on the Mount. His words are challenging and often misunderstood. Next week we will learn how to live responsibly by growing in our responsiveness to God.
