The culture is full of many lies when it comes to pornography. But sadly so to is the church. And not because of anything they do on purpose. It’s with good intent but a lack of knowledge or willingness that the church can sometimes communicate something it doesn’t plan or hope to share.

Pornography used to exist in the dirt and dark shadows of society and culture. While it existed there were commonly held standards and societal safeguards that kept it at the fringes and out of the mainstream. But that has all changed in a relatively short period of time. The culture is now full of stories of how porn doesn’t hurt anyone.

In the fifth episode of DriveTime Jason Soucinek and Walt Mueller look at lies the church can communicate about sex. It's important to note that not every church is guilty of these and many no longer speak in the terms Walt and Jason will share on this episode. However, parents must be aware of each of these because they can have an impact on the way we engage and ultimately the way we share the message of sexual integrity with our children.

In the fourth episode of DriveTime Jason Soucinek and Walt Mueller look at lies the culture can communicate about sex. As a parent you have the unique opportunity to help your children navigate the many lies they hear and set them on a path that points to God’s plan as the sex maker. However, this can be difficult if we are not aware or lack the tools for better conversation.

In the third episode of DriveTime Jason Soucinek and Walt Mueller look at how sexual integrity is possible in today's world. Conversations surrounding sex need to be good, true, and most important, point back to Christ. Sometimes though it is easy to think sexual integrity is just not possible. Especially when we look at the world our youth are living in. Only 44 percent of girls and 47 percent of boys between the ages of 15 and 19 had sexual intercourse at least once from 2011 to 2013. That’s down from 51 percent of girls and 60 percent of boys in 1988. Less than half of U.S. teenagers ages 15 to 19 are having sex, a rate dramatically lower than it was a quarter-century ago. This is good news. Youth are having less sex today then they were several years ago. And it lets us know that sexual integrity is possible!

For the second episode of DriveTime Jason Soucinek and Walt Mueller help parents give a clear definition to sexual integrity. As each passing generation is waiting longer and longer to marry it is becoming more and more difficult to follow God's standard for sex. For almost two thousand years young people only waited one or two years from the time of puberty (physical changes communicating readiness to create life) until they married. Today, because of nutrition and other factors, the onset of puberty is generally younger and most young adults are waiting until their late 20’s to marry. This means that if they are going to follow God’s standards for sex they might wait as long as 15 years (or more) from the time their body is ready for sex until they marry. That is a long time! And that is why the definition of sexual integrity and the message given must resonate in ways that transcend rules and boundaries. Unfortunately abstinence and purity don’t always encapsulate this truth. This episode of DriveTime is s

In the very first episode of DriveTime Jason Soucinek and Walt Mueller look at the Biblical foundations for sexual integrity that we can share as parents with our kids. The overarching story of scripture tells us a ton about God's grand design for sex as the sex-maker. Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Restoration all hold important truths about sex. Remembering Genesis 1 and 2 and looking to Jesus this episode will help parents build a firm foundation to communicate their value as followers of Christ. Today's teens are sitting within a sexual inferno as the world around them collapse. But we must do more than tell them to 'RUN!' We must tell them why. Kids should avoid premarital sexual activity not because we said so but because there are several good reasons. And scripture gives us many tools.
