MARRIAGE, PARENTING AND
SEX: A PASTORAL PERSPECTIVE
Christians in the Western world are under pressure to conform to the perspectives of a post-Christian worldview. In today's Western culture, liberal, progressive, postmodern, and secular views of "sex" are increasingly at odds with orthodox biblical theology. This course will focus on how to respond to issues related to "sex" in marriage, parenting, and the church. In the course we will:
- Present the orthodox,
biblical position on issues of human sexuality
- Explain the terms:
'liberal'; 'progressivist'; 'postmodern'; 'secular'
- Present
liberal/progressive/secular perspectives on human sexuality
- Equip students to
understand and defend the orthodox position on human sexuality
- Equip students and
pastoral leaders how to navigate these issues, in love, and in truth
- Equip parents on how
to guide their children through the moral wilderness that is Western
culture
- Equip students with
resources that lovingly and truthfully present a biblical view of human
sexuality
- Share resources that
can be used, in a church contret, for: Children's ministry, Youth
ministry, Young Adult ministry, Adult ministry
