Hot Sex! Adults Only! 30 Day Trial!

The "Relevant Church" in Tampa, Florida has issued its members a 30-day sex challenge. The idea, according to Pastor Wirth(less) is that if you do something for 30 days, you can develop a habit.

Married couples are encouraged to get nasty for 30 days straight. Single folk are encouraged to abstain. Funny. I thought that the gig given to single folk was to abstain until they're married... not for 30 days. But you get no hint of this in promotional material for the 30 day sex challenge.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm no prude. Sex is a good thing for married folks to do. But I'm wondering if Pastor Wirth has given any thought at all to biology? Let the reader understand...

For those relevant folks who decide to get it on church-style, there is a series of Bible studies starting tonight on such salacious topics as: "Business Time (Let the challenge begin)," "Your Way Right Away (Sometimes it's not all about you)," "Premature Consummation (Maybe there's another way)," "Taboos (Can you say that in church?)," and "Building Stamina (From challenge to lifetime)."

When it comes down to it, the relevant church's attempt to be, well, relevant, is destined to fail. The church doesn't exist for the purpose of "sexual healing." If we focus our time and energy on topics like these, then we might as well call ourselves therapists.

The church is not a hospital or a retreat center where you find the spark again. The church is a hospice. Soul doctors treat terminally ill patients and so far every one of them has died.

So much better than sex therapy is to prepare those under our care for a good death, a death that in which the body sleeps while the soul waits in the bosom of Abraham for the resurrection of the body. We've got something better than sex to offer, and so let's get to it. It's about Christ, and Him crucified folks. He's your Savior. If his church isn't giving you Jesus, then Pastor "Kinsey" Wirth doesn't have anything to offer at all.
