This week, Pastor Jon continued our Rediscovering Church series with a teaching out of 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 on sexual formation in the way of Jesus. The stories that the world sells about sexuality lead to disillusionment, disappointment, and fear. They drive us into false fulfillment or cycles of shame and guilt, but God’s vision for sex is one that leads to transformation and joy, and ultimately points us back to the greatest love story in all of history: the union of Christ and His Church. As followers of Jesus, we must chose to live out of this sacred story, both as individuals and as a community, and offer our world a credible and compelling alternative to human flourishing.
