How Brokenness Taught Me the Beauty of Sex

As a teenager, I wrestled with the fear that I might be missing out. My peers treated sex not only as casual fun but almost as a rite of passage, something everyone was supposed to experience during those years. And though I knew what Scripture taught—sex is reserved for marriage—obedience sometimes felt like lonely self-denial that offered little comfort. I dreaded awkward conversations, knowing looks, and jokes at my expense. Every time the topic came up, I felt like I was on trial before a world that saw me as naive, repressed, or just strange. It’s easy to feel ungrateful in those moments. Over time, those feelings stirred deeper questions in my heart. Was God being unreasonable? Was his call to wait until marriage just an arbitrary, joy-stealing rule I was expected to follow without understanding? After all, the reasons not to rob or murder seemed obvious to me. But sex? It felt too natural, too innocent, too harmless for God to be so strict about it. Everyone else seemed fine. Was the world right to laugh at me? Had I denied myself for nothing? Quietly, I echoed the psalmist’s lament: “Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure” (Ps. 73:13, NIV). Silent Witness of Unbelievers As I watched the world around me, I began to notice something striking: Even while rejecting God’s design for sex, most people betrayed an unspoken agreement with it. Nowhere was this clearer than in hookup culture. None of the swipe-right Tinder hookups, hazy one-night stands after clubs, or campus situationships eased the emptiness, emotional pain, or loneliness plaguing my peers. If anything, it worsened them. It was confusing. If sex were truly as liberating and empowering as our culture claimed, why did it leave so many people feeling more broken? I found clarity when I went back to the Scriptures I’d been quietly questioning for so long. Genesis 1:28 reminded me that humans are made in God’s image—not just any god but the triune God, eternally existing in perfect, loving communion. As bearers of this image, we’re fundamentally created for love, intimacy, and self-giving. We’re designed to fully know and be fully known. Though the fall has damaged every part of us, it hasn’t erased this deep wiring for connection. At our core, we’re lovers and beloved—so everything we do in life is ultimately motivated by this reality, including our pursuit of sexual fulfillment. If sex were truly as liberating and empowering as our culture claimed, why did it leave so many people feeling more broken? This helped me make sense of the inconsistency around me. I kept hearing that sex could be casual and detached, but even in the most surface-level hookups, people were still engaging in deeply intimate acts—kissing, holding, touching—that naturally invite vulnerability. When these gestures are stripped of their true meaning and reduced to mere physical pleasure, something breaks inside us. I saw it in the confusion. The emptiness. The regret people carried without knowing how to name it. And the problem didn’t end with hookup culture. Even in committed dating relationships, sex still can’t express what it’s meant to: a lifelong, covenantal self-giving. It makes little sense to fully give your body to someone without fully giving yourself. Because we’re embodied beings, sexual union is more than just a physical act—it’s a language that says, “I give you all of me, forever.” It no longer surprised me that even the unmarried couples I knew—the ones who seemed so close—carried a persistent restlessness and unfulfillment. Their physical closeness said something that the rest of their relationship contradicted. Only within marriage, where a husband and wife have publicly committed their lives to one another, can sex become what it was always meant to be: whole, beautiful, true love. Finally, I stopped seeing God’s boundaries as barriers and embraced them as wise protections for my good. Hope Amid Sexual Brokenness As creatures living in a fallen world, we’re constantly confronted with sexual sin not only around us but also within ourselves—even for Christians, who sincerely seek to obey God’s commands. Whether through the persistent pull of pornography, battles with lustful thoughts, or the scars left by broken relationships, sin haunts us all. I stopped seeing God’s boundaries as barriers and embraced them as wise protections for my good. Yet the faithful Husband hasn’t abandoned his unfaithful Bride—us. She has strayed and broken their vows, but he remains steadfast, offering forgiveness, restoration, and a covenant that will never be broken (Isa. 54:10). Though we deserve nothing but death for our sexual failures, God’s Son entered his own creation, lived a perfect life, and died as our substitute on Calvary to save us, from both condemnation and slavery to sin. This is exactly what marriage was always designed to display—the union of Christ and his church (Eph. 5:32). Marriage isn’t an end in itself; it points beyond itself to Christ’s love for his people. And this is why I’m grateful for what Scripture teaches about sexuality—grateful because I no longer have to be ashamed of following God’s wisdom. Grateful because, whether called to singleness or marriage, I don’t miss out on the gospel that marriage and sex point to. Grateful that in these truths, I see a Creator who loves me so deeply that he died my death and united himself to an unworthy rebel like me.

God Loves You Just Because He Loves You

God Loves You Just Because He Loves You

When was the last time you received unconditional love with no qualifiers or disclaimers? My 6-year-old recently reminded me how important this kind of love is. One morning, on our way out the door, my son bashfully told me, “Daddy, I love you because . . . because . . . I love you.” Then he hugged me, and we hopped in the car. My son’s words surprised me. Our family regularly encourages one another with phrases like “I love how brave you are” or “I love how special you make me feel” as we head out in the morning. So it was tough to tell if in that moment my son couldn’t think of something to say, was just ready to grab his backpack and get to school, or actually felt something profound. But during my 40-minute commute, I mulled over his words. I love you because I love you. That’s how our God loves us too. Yahweh’s Love My thoughts that morning turned to Deuteronomy 7. In this chapter, the Israelites camp on the plains of Moab, anticipating their entry into the promised land. The wilderness years are finally over, and Moses wants them to remember just how far Yahweh has brought them. God’s love for them is staggering: “It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the LORD set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, but it is because the LORD loves you and is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers” (vv. 7–8). Peter Craigie says the love Yahweh has for Israel is mysterious. It’s a peculiar, special love. Moses makes clear that the basis for that love isn’t found in the Israelites’ size or strength. Nothing intrinsic to Israel grounds God’s love. Rather, the Lord sets his love on them simply because he loves them. Even deeper, Moses grounds Yahweh’s love in the covenant he made with the patriarchs. The Lord keeps his oath by lavishing Israel with love and blessing. Israel isn’t impressive—their 40 years in the wilderness are proof of that. How could Yahweh continue to love them so persistently? And when we’re sinful and unimpressive like Israel, why does he love us so persistently? It’s His Nature To answer that question, we must reflect on God’s character and nature. The Bible tells us that God is love (1 John 4:8). The three persons of the Trinity—Father, Son, and Spirit—have been loving one another since before the world began (John 17:24). God cannot not love himself. He’s no egotist, but as John Piper argues, he’s simply the only being in the universe worthy of his own affection. Moses grounds Yahweh’s love in the covenant he made with the patriarchs. The Lord keeps his oath by lavishing Israel with love and blessing. God is love, and he loves extending his love to us. The love of the triune God bubbles over into our lives as he creates, speaks, and saves. We receive this love from him, and he calls us to extend it to others. Michael Reeves says, “In the triune God is the love behind all love, the life behind all life, the music behind all music, the beauty behind all beauty and the joy behind all joy.” We’re caught up in the love and beauty of the Trinity. But sadly—like Israel—we keep trying to prove we’re worthy of God’s love. Not Because We’re Impressive In a narcissistic age, our natural bent is to puff ourselves up. We broadcast the best version of ourselves on social media and place too much stock in our talents and success. Like peacocks, we display our feathers for all to see. I’m not sure what qualifies as impressive to you. For some, it’s the amount of education or work experience you have. It may be making a name for yourself through influence, fame, and power. In a consumer culture, money and possessions rise to the top of the list—houses, cars, toys, and travel make us look great. Day to day, the people around us often love us for our success and talents. They praise us for them. But will the Lord love you more if your career takes off and your bank account grows? Is his love tied to the state of your marriage, or your kids’ behavior and accomplishments? Moses’s message gives us the answer: No. Yahweh’s love isn’t contingent on external factors. He simply loves you because he loves you—full stop. It’s not the impressive things about you that turn his gaze. Isaiah declares God’s words: “This is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word” (Isa. 66:2). Your curated self doesn’t impress God, but your humility and faith turn his head. While it’s natural to lean on your strength as you live the Christian life, in reality, weakness is the way. Love’s Firm Foundation in God We’re not on the plains of Moab awaiting entry into Canaan, but we regularly long for the Lord’s love and favor. Our souls desperately need it. Thankfully, the love we need has a firm foundation in God’s character and election of his people for himself. Your curated self doesn’t impress God, but your humility and faith turn his head. My son’s words jolted me that morning. They reminded me of the great love we have in the Trinity. The Father loves us by choosing us: “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are” (1 John 3:1). The Son loves us with the same loved he received from the Father: Jesus told his disciples, “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you” (John 15:9). Moreover, “God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us” (Rom. 5:5). God’s love isn’t contingent on my behavior or strength but flows from his nature—from the love he had within himself before the creation of the world. In the fullness of time, the Father poured out his love by sending his Son to save us (John 3:16; Gal. 4:4–5). And because of Jesus’s finished work on our behalf, we can remain in that love for all eternity. I’d grown accustomed to my son admiring me for my strength: “I love you, Dad, because you are strong” were the words I subconsciously wanted to hear, but I needed to hear a different message from my son—and from my God. I’m loved just because God is love. And dear Christian, wherever you are today, so are you.

Ballots by Prime: Democracy’s dangerous next-day delivery

When 250 state ballots arrive in your Amazon order, faith in election security gets harder to defend. Yet that’s exactly what happened to a woman in Newburgh, Maine, who opened her package of household items to find five bundles of 50 official Maine referendum ballots.Adding to the irony, the ballots were for Question 1 — a measure asking voters whether to tighten absentee ballot rules and require photo ID. The woman did the right thing and called authorities. But what if she hadn’t?How can citizens trust the vote when ballots appear as shipping mistakes?Now under investigation, the bizarre mix-up raises urgent questions. Who had access to the ballots? Were chain-of-custody rules violated? How many more ballots might be “out for delivery”?For years, skeptics of election fraud have claimed concerns about ballot integrity are overblown. Yet events like this prove the opposite: The system is riddled with vulnerabilities. When official ballots wind up in an Amazon box, the process is beyond merely “flawed” — it’s broken.Election officials and lawmakers must confront an uncomfortable truth: The safeguards meant to protect our democracy aren’t working. Anyone arguing against stronger voter ID laws should look to Newburgh. How can citizens trust the vote when ballots appear as shipping mistakes?This isn’t a partisan issue. It’s a test of whether Americans still believe their votes matter. A democracy depends on a transparent, verifiable process — from printing to counting. When that chain breaks, confidence collapses.Newburgh should be a wake-up call. Every ballot must be tracked, every voter verified, every election beyond reproach. Reassurances and press conferences won’t cut it. Citizens deserve a voting system that’s airtight, accountable, and secure. Anything less insults the republic.Commonsense reforms aren’t complicated. Require a government-issued photo ID to vote — the same standard used to board a plane, buy a beer, or enter a federal building. For mail-in ballots, require proof of identity both when requesting and returning a ballot. Without that, the system leaks from every seam.RELATED: Honor system? More like fraud system Photo by Moor Studio via Getty ImagesWhen ballots get rerouted into cardboard boxes unnoticed, the integrity of democracy itself comes into question. It signals a culture that prizes convenience over vigilance, treating ballots like junk mail instead of sacred instruments of self-government.Democracy doesn’t collapse in secret; it erodes in daylight while people look away. That’s why reform must be bold, not bureaucratic. States need top-to-bottom reviews of how ballots are printed, stored, distributed, and tracked — and consequences for failures.If democracy is worth defending, ballots are worth protecting. Anything less, and we’ve already surrendered what makes the vote sacred.
