We’re looking at Sexual Orientation in a special two-part series. If this feels personal, that’s okay.
It’s important to recognize that sexual orientation is quite personal. But, the world has laid out it’s terms and it’s ideals for what sexual orientation means.
Our culture tells us who we’re attracted to in fact, defines us.
In this series, we’ll be discussing the cultural conversation set up with cultural standards and comparing it to what Jesus has to say about you. The world is feeding you a narrative.
Jesus is inviting you into your identity.
Highlights:
A Definition: Sexual orientation is the direction of your sexual or romantic attractions.
Culturally, we talk about sexual orientation not as something people experience, not just as a feeling that they’ve got but as a matter of identity, a matter of who a person is
Christianity would teach that people are much, much more than the direction that their sexual, romantic desires point them.
We have to recognize Christ’s perspective about sexual orientation is that every single one of us has a sexual orientation that needs His redemption. Every single one of us.
