Ways Men and Women Can Help One Another Fight | Fighting Sexual Objectification pt 5

In today’s class I ask the men in the class, what would you want to tell your sisters in Christ that they could do to help you fight the battle against objectification. I ask the women in the class the same thing about the men. It’s a great discussion with a lot of fantastic input from the students, and we hope it gives you a lot to think about. Stay tuned for next week’s episode where we contrast the culture of Heaven and the Culture of the World as it pertains to sexual objectification, and dive into the reality that following Jesus is not just a mere belief system but actually an entirely new way to be human.

The Answer To Sexual Brokenness Is Not Sexual Liberation | Fighting Sexual Objectification pt 4

We’d like to thank John Mark Comer for his phenomenal work he’s created on the topics of sexuality and relationships. You can find more of this great content in his book and sermon series of the same name: Loveology. Stay tuned for next week’s episode where we ask the male and female students in the class: what can people of the opposite gender do to help their fellow followers of Christ fight objectification?
