God's Design for Intimacy: What the Bible Really Says About Sex | You Asked For It

In this candid and biblical exploration, Pastor PL addresses one of culture's most contentious topics: What does the Bible say about sex? Moving beyond cultural assumptions, this message reveals God's incredible design for sexual intimacy and why His boundaries lead to greater joy, not less freedom. Whether you're single, married, or somewhere in between, discover how biblical sexuality offers hope, healing, and God's best for your life.
