The logic is sound.  If the fact that Jesus was raised from the dead was fiction, don’t you think the Apostle’s would have renounced their faith and trust in Him long before their painful, cruel deaths?  Something happened to the Apostles.  They were seized by the truth and never doubted…and thus died in their faith.

Dear Friends,

I am posting this page of resource links to give some background to some of the statements, quotes, and comments I made on Valentine’s Day.  I am grateful for our church and its willingness to trust me with important questions.  I hope I have treated you all with utmost respect and have given glory to our Savior Jesus Christ.

These are not in order.

• This is a great website which I discovered in my research.  The quotes from Chesterton and Lewis came from here: http://www.pureintimacy.org/piArticles/A000000400.cfm
• Check this testimony for the impact of pornography on a marriage and family.  http://www.heritage.org/research/family/tst111405a.cfm
• Here is an article about the impact of cohabitation on a future marriage:  http://www.livescience.com/culture/090714-cohabit-couples.html
• I didn’t have a chance to focus on marriage (the weekend conference did that) but here are a few resources that might be helpful.  I have not listened to this, but it comes from a trusted source.  http://thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/justintaylor/2010/02/08/when-sinners-say-i-do/
• The information I shared about being single came from this article in Touchstone (one of my favorite mags) http://www.touchstonemag.com/archives/article.php?id=20-08-020-o
• I also got a lot of out or reading Julia Duin’s book “Quitting Church”, especially Chapter Five when she addresses the plight of singles in the church.  (Julia is a single Christian woman.)
• The quote about pornography came from the book, Wired for Intimacy, reviewed here: http://www.albertmohler.com/2010/02/01/hijacking-the-brain-how-pornography-works/?action=print&id=11324

I am also thankful to the Christ Church clergy staff for taking an afternoon and helping me get to some pastoral reflections on the questions.  Their insights were very helpful and their counsel was wise.

In Christ,

David+

Here we go again. A sermon gets people all riled up…and it usually has to do with people now knowing the whole of Ephesians 5.

“Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ”

“Husbands love your wives as Christ loved the Church and gave himself…”

“Wives, submit to your husbands…”

Sounds like a great plan…although imperfectly realized in every household.
