A Couple of Reminders

Dear Family,

Let me remind you that this Sunday, June 8 we will have some fun with a brief family competition using our New City Catechism questions–I have decided to focus on questions 1-10 for this time. It will be helpful for you to review these questions and answers with your family before Sunday to be prepared for the fun.

Also, as I mentioned last week I will be continuing our series on God’s Design for Marriage with a message this Sunday on God’s Design for Sex. I will do my best to handle this topic with prudence and discretion since our children will be with us, as always. I will say no more than the Bible says–but I will be preaching from the Song of Songs, which can be quite explicit at points, so I want to give you fair warning. Some of your kids may ask questions that might make you squirm a bit, others will most definitely not ask questions (my remaining sons at home fall in the latter category)! I will not be speaking to the mechanics of sex at all, but rather God’s intention in creating it. I don’t think you will regret your children hearing anything I am going to say, but if you are uncomfortable with them hearing anything at all about sex at the particular stage they are at, then parental discretion is advised.

Blessings,

Pastor Colin
