We often fear that physical intimacy is shameful or bad, but God’s design for sex is actually meant for good. In this message from Deuteronomy 22, we explore why secret, faithless intimacy deeply damages our souls and relationships. Fortunately, Jesus offers complete forgiveness instead of crushing condemnation for our past mistakes. Step out of hiding today, receive His restorative grace, and discover true freedom!
