Well, when you come to the “sex” lesson in a marriage unit in Sunday School, you’re never going to have completely frank discussion, and maybe smaller settings are better for truly personal sharing on that subject anyways. However, I am continually encouraged by the open spirit that most folks have, and the lighthearted laughs we can all have while doing that sharing. I think we did a good job of balancing some of the practical issues of sex-in-marriage with the more theoretical, theological analysis of sex as a reflection of God’s desire for his people.
I’ll share one lesson that I personally will take away from it: I think that if nothing else, we should at least occasionally experience passion and excitement during worship. This is when God is reaching out to us - pursuing us - and if we aren’t excited by that, then our hearts are truly cold.
