We had a workshop for the youth to talk all about sex. In the world that we live in, we cant escape or shelf that word any longer. Even more as Christians, subjects about it should not be treated with contempt. After all, they're getting a whole lot of it outside. And that is only skewing our minds with the wrong ideas, images, beliefs, and values about what God made beautiful in the very first place. There are so many rising issues these days, in a world where noone knows what is right and wrong anymore. In a world where children are not excluded from the terrors and evils of men.
In respond to that, Aspirers decided to do something. We got amateurs to read up and talk to the youth. They were broken up in groups according to gender and age. We covered topics from biology parts to consequences of sex; contentedness to variations of sexual acts; masturbation to homosexuality; undergarments to testosterone; and so much more. And even after that we felt that there were so much more we could cover. Maybe next time we could call in professionals.
But I guess at the end of the day, it is our prayer that they'd learn something and hold it close to them. At the end of the day, they'd keep themselves pure and holy for the Lord their God. We may not know much but we're ready to learn up to be able to guide, admit we don't know and walk on this journey together with them. Life is a journey. And at least they know this is not something we keep under wraps and wont want to talk about. Cos like everything else, it's just another topic - a very real one.
