The church should be talking about sex with teenagers, more than simply “don’t do it”.

The word ‘values’ often comes with conservative assumptions, but the truth is all Christians have values. Mainline and liberal Christians should be using the word more frequently, and one place we can do that is taking about sex. It’s natural, it feel good, and you should do it with someone who genuinely cares about you. Sex just for the sake of sex is an empty experience, no matter who tells you otherwise.
