Full Online Service | Is the Bible’s View of Sex Outdated? | God’s Book | 19.07.26 | Anthony Delaney

Is the Bible’s teaching about sex, relationships and marriage outdated — or is it pointing us towards something deeper? In this message from our God’s Book series, Anthony Delaney explores one of the most personal and challenging questions people ask about Christianity today: does the Bible’s view of sex still make sense in our modern world? Looking at the big story of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, Anthony unpacks how the Bible presents sex not as something shameful, but as a good gift from a loving God — designed around covenant, faithfulness, identity and love. With honesty and sensitivity, this message explores: • Why God cares about sex and relationships • How Jesus holds together both grace and truth • The difference between freedom and healthy boundaries • Why our deepest identity is found in Christ • What marriage, singleness and friendship reveal about God’s love • How Jesus meets us with compassion, forgiveness and transformation From the woman caught in adultery in John 8 to the picture of the wedding feast in Revelation, the Bible tells a bigger story — not of rules and shame, but of a God who loves us, restores us and invites us into true life. Key Bible passages: • Genesis 1–2 • John 8:1–11 • Matthew 15:19 • 1 Corinthians 6:18–20 • Revelation 19 📖 God’s Book is a teaching series inspired by Andrew Ollerton’s book of the same name, exploring the Bible as one unified story that points to Jesus. 🔗 CONNECT WITH IVY CHURCH: Website – https://www.ivychurch.org Instagram –   / myivychurch   Facebook –   / myivychurch   🙏 Need prayer?
