In today’s climate of turmoil and uncertainty, threatening and incapacitating feelings run rampant. Yet the God who created your emotions has also given you everything you need to navigate them. The Bible paints relatable and resonant portraits of women and men struggling with grief, anger, guilt, and despair—and provides divine wisdom for transforming your emotional trials into spiritual triumphs.
Scriptures: Proverbs 5-6, 2 Samuel 11:1-4, 1 Kings 11:1-4, Exodus 20:14, 1 Corinthians 6:18
When the dark side does arrive, you have to make a decision whether you are going to cross over to that dark side or not. If you read Proverbs very much you will find in the first eight chapters it is almost as if Solomon is obsessed with the dark side of sexual immorality. Solomon had much to say about the dark side of sexual sin. When sexual temptation arrives, how do you defend yourself? This message presents the answer in the form of three questions.
"Be careful of anyone with 'honey on their lips'--people who want you to join them on the dark side of sexual immorality that will say what you want to hear." --Dr. Merritt
