Traditionally God???s design of sexuality has been presented as a list of dos and don???ts - especially the dont’s. The story of God???s design for sexuality is much more compelling than a list of behaviours. We need to talk about pornography, God honouring intimacy, and purity in a highly sexualised world. Dr Allen Meyer is the co-founder of Careforce LifeKeys and with him we???ll be discussing the impact of pornography on the brain, how to prevent it from destroying your life, and how to create a vision of purity.

Ever hear yourself saying ???I???ll do it tomorrow???? Thinking that if we put it off another day it gives us more time - and the next day you say the same thing so it never gets done.

Andrew Beveridge is a psychologist and a leadership development consultant and we talk with him about some of the principles he shares with corporate leaders in how to be more effective to get things done and how they can be applied to our homes and in our relationships.

This weekend???s program is going to be a little bit different. Kate and I were invited for a Q&A evening at Burdekin Community Church in Ayr Queensland. The questions were submitted anonymously and we had no preparation. Here is the recording of the evening as we discussed everyday issues many of us are faced with. For part two of this event, we answered questions on co-parenting, when your adult child is making unwise choices, the myth of living together, when trust is broken and sexual purity in young people.
