Hey Element Church. I am here in my office working on my Sex Ed sermons and thought I'd blog about some thoughts. Wednesday is my study day. As stated in this post, I have to have a pretty strict routine or I just don't get things done. So Wednesday I dedicate entirely to getting sermons prepared and studying for them. I like to stay at least two weeks ahead on sermon preparation. I don't schedule any appointments or meetings on Wednesday and try not to take many phone calls (unless you're in my fav 5). lol Anyway, I'm working on these Sex Ed sermons and let me tell you, this is weighing heavy on me. I've battled more what to say and what NOT to say in these sermons than in most I do. I want to be TOTALLY honest and bold in the Truth on sex, yet we want to have tact and taste as well in how we present it. The conclusion is, this is possibly going to be the most uncomfortable I've been on the platform in a while. This series is definitely rated EC-17 (Element Church - parents STRONGLY cautioned). While I know that some people won't/don't like what we say or do in this series, I know this: Our third graders are most likely hearing and learning more explicit material than we will study over the next four weeks. Please pray for me/us as we attack these lies of the devil. For far too long we've been deceived when it comes to sex and we want to EXPOSE satan and storm the gates of hell with the Truth of God's Word. Many of you have already sent encouraging words and we thank you for that. Again, lets bathe this series in prayer that God would use His Word to set the captives free and to bring redemption to the lost. Thanks Element Church!
Following Christ,
Jeff
