While sex is not inherently

While sex is not inherently wrong it is outside of marriage, and over the centuries the church has tried to grapple with how to address this issue. Today, America's Christian culture has decided to side with teaching sex as a hands off issue. Most of the churches, however, will have the sense to clarify that it is only 'hands off' outside of marriage, but sadly that is not always soIt's understandable to teach it that way. It's even a biblical truth. But does that mean we're approaching it correctly?By the age of ten, probably even younger now, a child growing up in the church knows that sex outside of marriage is a big no no. But all of that negative teaching resonates over the years. Yes it's wrong out of the context of marriage, but it is right within the context of marriage. Where are those lessons?Sure, it's a fine line you're walking on with that because you then cause curiosity (and we all know what killed the cat). Which is why most churches put those lessons few and very very far between. My guess is that is why God put Song of Solomon in the Bible. He knew somewhere along the way we would have issues and misconceptions that sex was bad altogether and He wanted to assure us how inaccurate that is.My goodness, for growing up in the church I have yet to hear more than one...ONE lesson on that book of the Bible. After all, it's considered to be the book you read only when you're married. *insert eyes rolling here*
