With You: Arbor Road Church

This Sunday, Pastor Tony introduced us to the new series Sexy Lies. We are addressing the alluring lies about sex & relationships that we will fall for if we aren’t careful.The first lie we tackled is "My sexuality is the most important thing about me". Give this a listen to find out what this lie is so convincing and what God has to say in response.**Our microphone cut out for 2 minutes at the 15:21 mark. The 3 nuggets to take away from the first point are: 1) We are created in God's image, 2) God created Eve as a complement to Eve (and vice versa), & 3) Sex has preset purposes.
