Has Another Pendulum Just Cracked the Ceiling?
As people we seem to do a good job of reacting to the absence of something with its excess and vice versa.
You may have heard of the Relevant church in Florida with the ‘30 Day Sex challenge”. (ie you get the leg over every day for 30 days) As a teenager I think that would have been my idea of heaven. As a 44 year old married bloke with kids the world looks a bit different… I’m not sure I want to have sex as mandatory. Then it would become like washing the dishes… well you get the idea
Still if you’re going to pick an activity to be excessive about, it sounds like a lot more fun that 30 days of tithing.
Anyway here’s a link to the discussion going on around this topic.
One of the commenters quoted C.S. Lewis and summed it up well “Satan does not care which extreme you pick, as long as you pick one.”
What really worries me is when the pendulum swings back and we have “30 days of abstinence”….
Not in my church…
Well, I know we’re still probably counted as “newly-weds” (just past 6 months now), but I’m pretty sure we have sex more often than we wash the dishes. But - that’s not exactly got to do with how much we have sex
