Sexual Detox: The E-Book (11/07/09 - 13 Comments)
Last week's series on Sexual Detox was quite an experience for me. I figured it would garner a little bit of interest simply because it dealt with an universal issue (sex) and because it included several important peripheral issues (pornography, addiction, and so on). But even then the response surprised me, both in terms of the number of visitors who showed up to read the articles and the outpouring of comments and emails in response...


Sexual Detox: Recommended Resources (10/31/09 - 10 Comments)
Having wrapped up the Sexual Detox series, I thought it would be useful to provide a list of recommended resources for those who wish to do reading on a particular topic. Pretty much every author who has written more than, say, ten books has written one on the Lord's Prayer and one on either sex or marriage (or perhaps both). It seems to be some kind of rite of passage. I assume I'll get a...


Sexual Detox V: Freedom (10/30/09 - 20 Comments)
Note (11/08/09) - This complete series is now available for free download. Click here to learn more. This is the final entry in a series of articles about sex and, in particular, about sexual detoxification. First I wrote about Pornifying the Marriage Bed, then about Breaking Free and A Theology of Sex. The fourth article dealt with Detoxification. The series was written specifically to target young men--those who are newly married or nearly married or...


Sexual Detox IV: Detoxification (10/29/09 - 17 Comments)
Note (11/08/09) - This complete series is now available for free download. Click here to learn more. This is now the fourth entry in a series of articles about sex and, in particular, about sexual detoxification--about replacing lies with truth. First I wrote about Pornifying the Marriage Bed, then about Breaking Free and finally about A Theology of Sex. Today the series continues with Detoxification. The purpose of this series of articles is to lead...


Sexual Detox III: A Theology of Sex (10/28/09 - 31 Comments)
Note (11/08/09) - This complete series is now available for free download. Click here to learn more. This is the third article in a series targeted specifically at young men but applying, I am learning, to all of us. So far I have written about Pornifying the Marriage Bed and about Breaking Free. What did God create first: hunger or food? Did God make man hungry and then invent food to fill the need? Or...


Sexual Detox I: Pornifying the Marriage Bed (10/26/09 - 65 Comments)
Note (11/08/09) - This complete series is now available for free download. Click here to learn more. This week I am going to devote most of the articles on this site to the topic of sex. I want to speak especially to young men, those who are teenagers or dating or engaged or newly married. However, I do hope that anyone can read and enjoy the series, even if the teen years are far behind...


Friday Miscellania (09/26/08 - 23 Comments)
It's Friday and that's a good day to ramble. So I thought I'd take the opportunity to share just a couple of items of "miscellania." Personal Updates I've had a couple of people ask for updates as to what I'm up to these days. So here goes. My fall travel schedule is very light, for which I'm grateful. In a couple of weeks I'll be heading to Chicago to blog the True Woman conference. Yes,...


The Porn Myth (08/03/07 - 14 Comments)
A feminist leader affirms what the Bible has been telling us all along. New York Magazine recently featured an interesting article called "The Porn Myth." Written by feminist Naomi Wolf, it was first printed in a 2003 edition of the magazine but is as timely today as ever. I'll say from the outset that her article is just a little bit graphic at times, but only because Wolf deals with the pervasiveness and power of...
