We do not have to make the Bible relevant - it already is! But we do have to show its relevance.

Then Jesus changed the situation. When he paid for our sins on the cross, the veil in the temple that symbolized our separation from God was split from top to bottom, indicating that direct access to God was once again available.

God made every one of us a sexual being, and that is good. Attraction and arousal are the natural, spontaneous, God-given responses to physical beauty, while lust is a deliberate act of the will.

My first reaction in pastoral care is not to explain. And again, I don't think the primary purpose of the Bible is to explain suffering. I never have, because the actual explanations are often inadequate. I think the primary purpose of Scripture is to say I am all you need in this suffering and I need comfort.

Accidents are just incidents in God's good plan for you.

Knowing your purpose gives meaning to your life.

God doesn't intend for you to handle all the pain and stress in your life by yourself. We were wired for each other. We need each other.
