Secret Church 11 – Session 4: How Sin Distorts Marriage and Sex

About this sermon

People often underestimate the craftiness of the enemy in his efforts to distort our understanding of what is good and holy in the eyes of God. It should not come as a surprise to Christians that sin has therefore distorted our view of sexuality. The sexual revolution has unfolded at a rapid pace, leaving many Christians confused as to how to engage with certain pressing issues of sexuality. In this session of Secret Church 11, Pastor David Platt explains the various ways in which man’s sinfulness has distorted God’s good design for sexuality. It is critical that Christians are able to articulate the biblical view of issues such as homosexuality, abortion, polygamy, casual sex, and pornography. Only the power of the Gospel is able to redeem our culture’s fallen understanding of these issues.
