Our culture is LOUD about anything to do with sex. But as Christians, we need to make sure that the Bible has LOUDEST voice. In this episode, we explore a few claims around sex and marriage, compare culture with biblical truth and ultimately unpack the design God has for marriage and sex.

The Claims:
- Adam and Eve didn’t have a ceremony and didn’t sign a piece of paper to be bound together. They had sex. Therefore, premarital sex does not exist.
- Sex is marriage.
- End game dating = sex is okay because you’ll eventually get married/you’re treating it like marriage now. 

Bible Passages:
Genesis 2:18-25
1 Corinthians 6:9-20 & 7:1-2
Hebrews 13:4
Ephesians 5:25
Colossians 3:12-13
