Have you heard of the "Seven Day Sex Challenge"

Ed Young who is another one of our seeker-friendly and emerging type pastors offers a seven day sex challenge to his congregation. Hey Pastor Young how about a 7 day challenge to get back into the word of God, or seven days of preaching the gospel to yourself. Hmmm...of course that would be Biblical and not culturally appealing and sexy.
Sadly this is what is going on in many church today which brings the attention to man and leaves God on the sidelines to a large degree. In this context God is the one who allows us to enjoy sex. So our attention becomes the blessing and if we can work into our thinking the Blessor then so be it. A sound reading of the New Testament will quickly yield the church to recognize the most important and most consistent message was Christ crucified.
