Hey Parents!

As we move closer to Valentines Day, we wanted to use our next


Wednesday night sermon series to discuss the issues surrounding
dating and sexual purity. This years series is called To Be Honest. We
will be focusing on Gods intended design for romantic love as well as
discussing how students can remain pure in todays culture.
Throughout this series we will discuss some of the issues that students
deal with today in regards to purity in dating (pornography, sex,
emotional and physical boundaries, etc.).
I am going to list the schedule of topics below just to give you all
a heads up about what your student will be hearing. We would love for
you to be able to ask them questions and to follow up on these issues.
Our culture is bombarding them with these things everyday and we
believe that both the Church and the home must address these topics
with students in a God-glorifying way. If you have any questions or
concerns about the series, please feel free to call or email Bobby or
Bryan so we can clarify what will be taught.

Week 1 (Feb. 4th): This message will deal with the overall
biblical view of romantic love between a man and a woman. We
will look at why God designed romantic love in the beginning and
talk through how sin and our world have distorted that design.

Week 2 (Feb. 11th): In this message, we will cover the topic of


dating. This is a hot button issue for students today who tend to
approach dating with a lack of seriousness. We have seen that
unhealthy dating relationships are the number one reason why
students walk away from the Church and God. We want to
proactively help our students to look at dating from a biblical
perspective and challenge them to a higher standard.

Week 3 (Feb. 18th): This week will be all about marriage! We


will discuss Gods intended design for marriage as a picture of
the gospel and then give practical wisdom for how our students
can be preparing for their future marriages now!

Week 4 (Feb. 25th): This will be the week that we cover the
sometimes-intimidating topic of sex. We will talk about the
purpose of sex and the dangers of being sexually active outside
of marriage. Our goal here is that students would see that
following Gods ways and waiting is better than chasing cheap
pleasures now.

Week 5-6 (March 4th and 11th): For these two weeks we will
separate guys and girls to discuss Biblical manhood and
womanhood in a gender specific way. We will have some guest
speakers come in and share with our students during these two
weeks as well.

We appreciate you guys so much!

Again, feel free to contact us with any questions.
