Episode notes
Plan Conversations, Use Scripture
- Be intentional: plan how and when to talk to your children about sex rather than avoiding it.
- Use Scripture, beginning with Genesis, to frame sexuality as God's design for marriage and procreation.
Frame Sexuality Positively
- Speak positively about sexuality as a God-given gift intended to glorify him within marriage.
- Avoid treating sex as gross or shameful when instructing your child.
Sexuality Is Gift, Not Identity
- Sexuality is designed by God for marriage but should not define a person's whole identity.
- The Bible offers a balanced view that neither minimizes nor idolizes sexuality.
