The Parent Pod was great last night even though the winds caused us to get sandblasted. Let's just say we all had an exfoliation. A couple of newbies to the Pod and the Pod continues to grow. We had one mother and son at Contagious last night as a result of our surf camp on Saturday. Coolio! Last night's talk was hopefully a spring board for parents and students to have "the talk".
Last night we talked about God's view or our body and sex. Of course with students whenever you say "sex" you have their total attention. For some reason that is the topic they are most interested in. We unpacked I Corinthians 6:12-20 . Sex was God's creation and we need to make sure we keep it in the context of the Creator's purpose. Students then got in their sand pods (formerly known as family groups or table groups) and discussed this section of scripture.
Parent/Teen Discussion:
Read I Corinthians 6:12-20
- Do you think the sexual guidelines that most Christians set up for kids today are too loose or too tight?
- What do you think are the top three sources of sexual temptation for students today?
- What is one fresh insight you can take form today’s Bible passage that can help you battle sexual temptation?
