[1945.52 --> 1947.30] that is full of truth
[1947.30 --> 1949.26] i think a lament of mine
[1949.26 --> 1951.22] is that in all the conversation
[1951.22 --> 1951.82] that's happening
[1951.82 --> 1952.58] at the church level
[1952.58 --> 1953.06] and this is like
[1953.06 --> 1953.84] every denomination
[1953.84 --> 1954.62] around sexuality
[1954.62 --> 1956.04] a lot of people
[1956.04 --> 1956.70] are neglecting
[1956.70 --> 1957.74] to read the bible itself
[1957.74 --> 1959.18] and if i had more time
[1959.18 --> 1959.84] i'd just share with you
[1959.84 --> 1960.92] how a big part of my journey
[1960.92 --> 1962.60] in understanding sexuality
[1962.60 --> 1963.72] is really having to do
[1963.72 --> 1964.56] the hard work
[1964.56 --> 1965.66] of reading all the passages
[1965.66 --> 1966.18] in the bible
[1966.18 --> 1967.42] around sexuality
[1967.42 --> 1968.74] all the passages
[1968.74 --> 1969.58] i don't necessarily
[1969.58 --> 1970.48] feel comfortable with
[1970.48 --> 1971.18] and allow the bible
[1971.18 --> 1972.10] to challenge me
[1972.10 --> 1973.08] who grew up
[1973.08 --> 1974.08] and continues to live
[1974.08 --> 1975.22] in an over-sex society
[1975.22 --> 1976.64] and allow myself to say
[1976.64 --> 1978.06] lord this feels strange
[1978.06 --> 1978.30] to me
[1978.30 --> 1978.90] it feels hard to me
[1978.90 --> 1979.72] but i believe it's good news
[1979.72 --> 1980.58] because it's your word
[1980.58 --> 1982.38] let's be people
[1982.38 --> 1982.94] who don't just read
[1982.94 --> 1983.68] blog articles
[1983.68 --> 1984.60] but read the scripture
[1984.60 --> 1985.44] and allow the scripture
[1985.44 --> 1986.52] to be our guide
[1986.52 --> 1987.42] our teacher
[1987.42 --> 1989.10] and the thing that guides us
[1989.10 --> 1990.04] into freedom
[1990.04 --> 1991.48] in jesus
[1991.48 --> 1993.52] because as we do that
[1993.52 --> 1994.40] live full of grace
[1994.40 --> 1995.10] and full of truth
[1995.10 --> 1997.54] then we will shine brightly
[1997.54 --> 1999.58] in the sexual slavery
[1999.58 --> 2000.28] of our culture
[2000.28 --> 2001.66] amen
[2001.66 --> 2003.56] let me lead us
[2003.56 --> 2003.98] in prayer
[2003.98 --> 2012.94] lord as i
[2012.94 --> 2013.82] lead this prayer
[2013.82 --> 2014.58] i feel the weight
[2014.58 --> 2015.68] of this teaching myself
[2015.68 --> 2018.34] and i want to thank you
[2018.34 --> 2019.10] for your word
[2019.10 --> 2021.12] and i want to thank you
[2021.12 --> 2021.82] that the bodies
[2021.82 --> 2022.86] we live in
[2022.86 --> 2024.32] are good
[2024.32 --> 2026.22] i praise you
[2026.22 --> 2027.38] for the goodness
[2027.38 --> 2027.96] of the bodies
[2027.96 --> 2028.56] we have
[2028.56 --> 2030.06] and i ask that you
[2030.06 --> 2030.66] would give us hearts
[2030.66 --> 2031.60] to receive our bodies
[2031.60 --> 2032.22] with gratitude
[2032.22 --> 2035.18] and as we think about
[2035.18 --> 2035.68] our bodies
[2035.68 --> 2036.46] and our sexuality
[2036.46 --> 2037.82] lord i ask that you
[2037.82 --> 2038.54] bring healing
[2038.54 --> 2040.06] to wherever there is shame
[2040.06 --> 2041.92] wherever there is
[2041.92 --> 2042.70] brokenness
[2042.70 --> 2044.54] wherever there is fear
[2044.54 --> 2045.62] and guilt
[2045.62 --> 2047.92] and i ask that your spirit
[2047.92 --> 2049.36] do a new work in us
[2049.36 --> 2050.02] of healing
[2050.02 --> 2050.90] and renewal
[2050.90 --> 2052.44] that you would draw us
[2052.44 --> 2053.02] out of darkness
[2053.02 --> 2053.62] into light
[2053.62 --> 2054.48] out of slavery
[2054.48 --> 2056.10] into true freedom
[2056.10 --> 2057.50] through your son jesus
[2057.50 --> 2059.60] i pray that if we have
[2059.60 --> 2061.02] a hard time believing this
[2061.02 --> 2061.82] that we'd receive it
[2061.82 --> 2062.32] this morning
[2062.32 --> 2063.86] that we are truly
[2063.86 --> 2065.64] temples of the holy spirit
[2065.64 --> 2067.32] and jesus you dwell
[2067.32 --> 2068.24] in us
[2068.24 --> 2070.90] we trust you
