Commitment & Continence

"God created human beings in his image - "male and female he created them" (Gen 1:27) - with capacities for intense sexual pleasure and with a calling to commitment in marriage and continence in singleness."

The Manipulation of the Media

"Today's media, especially television, seeks to define reality for us. It wants to tell us how to think about sex, about marriage, about our desires, about sin. The danger of not bringing God's standards to bear in what you watch isn't only that you might see a naked body, but that the values of a sinful world will shape what you're living for."
