Walk as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. (Ephesians 5:8-10 ESV)brbrThese Bible verses are from the day 1 topic study on dating and relationships. When I watch tv, I get the impression that sex is something that is a social norm for couples to do outside of marriage. brbrCouples living together seems like the norm but I know different. It is only to be done in the context of marriage. brbrI really wish I had been taught these things growing up. My would be a lot different. But my parents, in particular, my mom cant teach me something she hasnt done herself. brbrI go every year to my mothers church for Mothers Day. Last year, a guest speaker got up and started talking about how things were done when she was a child. (This woman had to be in her 70s.) she mentioned how women didnt have children without husbands. Then she apologized for comment and couldnt understand why as sex outside of marriage is a sin and we were in a church. Not understanding why anyone would see the need to apologize for a comment about sin in a church but it happened. brbrI guess that is why my mom and I attend different churches. /p
