About this listen

Dear St Andrews Family,

My guess is that everyone who is reading this is brokensexually. Some of you have cheated on your spouse and others have only dreamed of doing so. Some of you have an active lusty imagination and some of you act it out. Jesus actually has some things to say about this and they aren’t pleasant—He says, “cut it off or you go to hell!”

I don’t want to write about or even think about what “cutit off” means, but we probably should. Because I think in the background of this text is something we sometimes miss: an invitation to something beautiful. Even as Jesus steers us away from seduction, lust, and fracture, he calls us tofulfil our longings and find our wholeness in him. This is kinda cool. Take a look at Matthew 5:27-30 when you get a chance and let’s worship and think about this more.
