A Sexual Counter Reformation?

 

As Christians we are possibly totally confused by what is going on around us, especially in the area of sexual ethics, gender issues and the like.

The sexual revolution of the 1960s has not produced the promised utopia. Instead, we have reports of alarming sexual abuse of school girls, the MeToo movement, sexual violence, pornography, babies being aborted and the like. There is a great deal of angst about sex rather than freedom. There is a reaction against sexual promiscuity.

But what are we, as Christians, to do in this context. See Welcome To The Sexual Counter Reformation by David Robertson. He suggests we are in a position similar to first century paganism and that the church today should do what the church then did.

Veritasophobia?

 The following video has been banned on CBS, Hallmark and CMT in the USA because it is too "controversial"

Is this just another example of only one view being acceptable and other views being silenced, or "cancelled"? What other reason could there be when those channels have aired controversial LGBTQ and Planned parenthood ads? This ad is not extreme, just truthful.

See the article here.

Leadership Books For 2021

Ministry is no longer about preparing worship and cycling around the parish drinking tea with members. It is much more about leadership with all of the aspects of entrepreneurship, team-building, vision-casting and so much more. There is much to be learnt from both Christian and secular sources.

Joseph Lalonde has listed 5 books that he believes leaders should read last month! 😀
