Another thing...I was listening to a radio program the other day...probably Focus on the Family. It was an interview with the author of
Teaching True Love in a Sex-at-13 Generation. They were talking about purity and how the viewpoint of young people, even Christians, has been drastically distorted. It was not news, because I am not too old to remember middle school through college, but it
was disturbing.
Purity has become nothing more than another way to push the envelope and see "how far is too far." It is called "Christian Sex" in some communities, and has become the way Christians stay "pure." Its everything and anything...with the exception of losing your virginity. "Purity."
It goes to show that we, as a Christian community, need to step up and teach our young people what it means to be pure. We need to stop leaving it just to the church youth director or Christian School teacher. It is
our responsibility to show them
The Way they should go...so they will not depart from it. If we don't, someone else will show them
a way...and it won't be easy coming back.
Anyway...read the book. And I wrote a song about it.
