> The sex addict uses sex as a quick fix, or as a form of medication for anxiety, pain, loneliness, stress, or sleep. Sex addicts often refer to sex as their "pain reliever" or "tension reliever." In a popular novel, the heroine describes sex as "the thinking women's Valium."

Its time for a change! The Church historically as turned a blind eye to the fact of sexual misconduct. This Church is taking a stand!

Paul says to the Corinthians "It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is not tolerated even among pagans,"

This is now, today. This from the Barna report. "Born-again" Christians are more likely to go through a marital split than are non-Christians, according to a new study by the Barna Research Group.

 Revelation 2:29 "Are your ears awake? Listen. Listen to the Wind Words, the Spirit blowing through the churches." (the message translation)

Have Christians today got good at making every thing look good on the surface?

Jesus said in Luke 4:16-19 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."

Do we abide in that truth or merely believe it?
