Secret Church 11: Family, Marriage, Sex, and the Gospel
In Secret Church 11, Pastor David Platt teaches Christians how to understand family, marriage, and sex, all based on the foundational truths of the gospel. We’ll consider God’s design for sexuality, marriage, parenting, orphan care, singleness, and widow care. This study will also look at the way man has distorted God’s good design, which means that issues like divorce, homosexuality, abortion, polygamy, and pornography are covered. Finally, a few specific applications are made in relation to sexual distinction in the church, sexual sin in the church, and sexual satisfaction in marriage.
