Preaching about sexuality in a post-Christian context
A few weeks ago I wrote an op-ed for CNN countering the narrative that to preach a faithful, biblical sexual ethic is turning young people away from the Church. To continue that conversation, I had the opportunity to interview my good friend, Dean Inserra, founder and lead pastor of City Church, Tallahassee, Florida. What I love about Dean is two things: He’s unflinchingly biblical and yet winsome and loving in his approach. He pastors in a cross-section of college students from Florida State, Bible belt Christians, and political types in Florida’s capital. He says, “The Church is one of the few places, if not the only place, in society where people from all spheres of influence come to gather.”
