In this series of episodes Tony talks about why God invented sex.
God is brilliant.
God is a genius.
The wisdom and power of God are incomprehensible.
At some point in the flow of eternity God decides he's going to create the universe, and humanity.
And just think for a moment about how God could have created humanity if he wanted to.
If God wanted the human race he could have just created 8 billion people all at once, just like he created Adam and Eve.
But for some reason God comes up with this brilliant idea and he decides he's going to create the human race through the procreation of the human race.
So God creates Adam and Eve, and God creates sex.
He designs the male body with the right parts, and the right hormones, and the right nerves, and wires it all together with the male brain to create a sexual creature.
And he creates the femlae body witht he right parts, and the right hormones, and the right nerves, and wires it all together with the female brain to create a sexual creature.
And the male has the ability to become aroused and to become erect, and the female has the ability to become aroused and to lubricate.
And the female has the ability to ovulate and to become pregnant.
And the whole thing is absolutely amazing, and fascinatiing, and mysterious, and wonderful, and delicious.
In this series Tony reveals the 3 primary reasons that God invented sex.
As we gain a proper understanding of what sex is, and why God invented sex, it brings clarity to our hearts and minds and creates the frame of reference that allows us to both express and experinece our sexual gift in a way that's consistence with the very reasons God has given us this wonderful gift!

God is pretty smart.
In fact, God is a genius!
Sex was his idea.
He invented sex.
God must be brilliant!
He's the one who concieved of it, and created it, and made it as wonderful, and mysterious, and delicious as it is.
Since God is the one who invented sex, God has an opinion about sex.
He has a heart, mind, will, design, and plan for human sexuality.
There are ways to experience sex that are consistant with God's plan for sex, and ways that are inconsistant with his plan.
What many of us have done (including the host of this podcast) is that we've taken the gift God created for us and we've turned it into something God never intended for it to be.
Some people abuse alcohol to the point where it becomes destructive.
Some people abuse food to the point where it becomes destructive.
Some people abuse gambling to the point where it becomes destructive.
And in much the same way, some people abuse the gift of sex to the point where it becomes destructive.
In this episode Tony talks about "lasciviousness", and what it means to "reel in" the unhealthy, dysfunctional, and harmful ways we've become accustomed to experiencing sex to a place that's healthier and more consistent with God's heart, mind, will, design, and plan for sex in our lives.
The bible says that God's people are "peculiar people".
We are called to be very different from people who do now know, love, or serve God.
Out of all the nations of the earth, God chose Israel to be his people.
They were to be very different from the nations around them.
God's people are to think different.
God's people are to have different priorities.
God's people think very differently about money, marraige, values, and virtually every area of life.
And this "peculiar" difference should certainly have profound implications for the way God's people express and experience their sexual gift.
People without God can have sex however they want to have sex, but God's people can't to that.
People without God can commit fornication, or adultry, but God's poeple can't do that.
People without God can participate in orgies or beastiality, but God's people can't do that.
If you belong to call, you are his "treasured posession", he has "called you out", he has "set you apart", and you are part of his "peculiar people".
In this series Tony explores the implications of being the "peculiar people" of God, and the implications of that reality upon our sexual gift.
Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and puriify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. Titus 2:14
