Welcome to our Creator Calls…where we seek truth together.
This week we're going to talk about sex and faith.
Whether it's pornography, transgenderism, same sex marriages, or even pedophilia...why does it matter what we do when it comes to sex?
And does anyone have the right to decide what is sexually moral?
Most people are aware that there are some 'rules' in the Bible about certain types of sexual behaviour.
But very few understand that our Creator set specific boundaries regarding sex to protect all human beings, and why they are so vital to keep, especially in today's highly sexualized culture.
Philosopher and theologian Kirk Durston joins me today to share his thoughts on Faith and Sexuality in Our Culture...which he says is one of the primary challenges facing us today.
Throughout history, when people didn't follow the sexual boundaries that God set for us, their societies collapsed. And Kirk says we are dangerously close to the same thing happening to us.
Here are the key points we'll be discussing during this episode.
[00:00] Introduction: The Challenge of Sexuality & Faith in Today's Culture
[1:16] Scientist, philosopher and theologian Kirk Durston on the challenge of sexuality
[5:30] God's sexual laws are designed to maximize human flourishing & minimize suffering
[14:08] When the body rules, rational thought deteriorates
[22:40] Technology could move us faster towards societal collapse
[30:55] People are designed for true loving relationships; it's one of our deepest cravings
[38:20] Asking God to give us a beautiful mind to win the spiritual war against our soul
[44:30] The enemy of our souls can control us through sex more than anything else
[48:00] Satan's goal is to destroy everything good that God has made; especially human beings
[50:45] God is the origin of beauty, love, art, music and every good thing
[54:35] Prayer together
[57:04] Final message
Kirk's Story
If you are interested in reading Kirk’s brief account of how he began his own spiritual journey, here it is.
After half a lifetime of seeing his world growing darker and darker, Kirk reached a point of desperation where he begged God for a beautiful mind and for the sun to shine again in his soul. What followed was a series of life-giving discoveries of enormous importance that he describes in this video, titled ‘Quest for a Beautiful Mind’. It is 20 minutes long, but hopefully well worth the watch, and ends with what may be the most powerful prayer a person can pray.
