Sacred Sexuality excerpt: Origins of Clerical Celibacy
Center for Healthy Sex presents a lecture by Greta Hassel: "OH MY GOD!!! The Intimate Relationship between Sexuality & Spirituality" Lecture description: For better or worse, sexuality and spirituality, or more directly, sex and religion are inextricably linked. For millions of Americans that link comes in the form of repressive programing from the Church leading to the widespread by-product of shame and guilt. As a result we are experiencing what Dr. Oz calls "the silent epidemic of the sexless marriage." If your clients grew up in Christian or Catholic, conservative, fundamental or evangelical traditions, then healing the split between Spirituality and Sexuality is most likely integral to their sexual healing and wholeness. For example, it may be helpful for them to understand that the concept of sex as sin (which for many clients blocks access to sexual pleasure) is not a teaching of the Bible. Rather, it has its roots in a fourth century man's personal sexual conflict--a conflict that has literally altered the course of Christendom and civilization. This and other key insights reflect the changing tide towards wider acceptance, and even celebration, of sexual pleasure. Greta will be addressing such topics as: • How we got here: A fresh look at Biblical origins and history • Interventions for treating shame and guilt • Current trends in Sacred Sexuality Greta Hassel is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Intimacy Coach and Sexual Educator. Her Master's Degrees in Divinity and Psychology are the foundation of her lifelong study of Modern Psychology, Ancient Wisdom and Sacred Sexuality. Additional training includes Clinical Sexology with Dr. Patti Britton, Integrative Body Psychotherapy with Dr. Marjorie Rand, The Art of Conscious Loving with Charles and Caroline Muir in Esalen, and Tantric Kriya Yoga with Bodhi Avinasha. She is the creator and facilitator of "The Fire and the Fragrance" and "Love, God and Sex", weekly empowerment groups for women. She leads workshops on "Compassionate Communication", based on Non-Violent Communication. Her background, commitment and passion equip her to facilitate healing the painful conflict between the pleasure of sex and the repression of religion. Greta has worked with women, men and couples for over 20 years. She is a Clinical Associate at Center for Healthy Sex.

10/15: Martin Luther; The Large Catechism - Of Prayer
Martin Luther (10 November 1483 -- 18 February 1546) was a German monk, Catholic priest, professor of theology and seminal figure of a reform movement in 16th century Christianity, subsequently known as the Protestant Reformation. He strongly disputed the claim that freedom from God's punishment for sin could be purchased with money. He confronted indulgence salesman Johann Tetzel with his Ninety-Five Theses in 1517. His refusal to retract all of his writings at the demand of Pope Leo X in 1520 and the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V at the Diet of Worms in 1521 resulted in his excommunication by the Pope and condemnation as an outlaw by the Emperor. Luther taught that salvation is not earned by good deeds but received only as a free gift of God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ as redeemer from sin. His theology challenged the authority of the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church by teaching that the Bible is the only source of divinely revealed knowledge and opposed sacerdotalism by considering all baptized Christians to be a holy priesthood. Those who identify with Luther's teachings are called Lutherans. His translation of the Bible into the vernacular (instead of Latin) made it more accessible, which had a tremendous impact on the church and on German culture. It fostered the development of a standard version of the German language, added several principles to the art of translation, and influenced the writing of an English translation, the King James Bible. His hymns influenced the development of singing in churches.His marriage to Katharina von Bora set a model for the practice of clerical marriage, allowing Protestant priests to marry. In his later years, in deteriorating health, Luther became increasingly critical of adherents of Judaism, writing that Jewish synagogues and homes should be destroyed, their money confiscated, and liberty curtailed. These statements and their influence on antisemitism have contributed to his controversial status. THE LARGE CATECHISM..... Consisted of works written by Martin Luther and compiled Christian canonical texts, published in April of 1529. This book was addressed particularly to clergymen to aid them in teaching their congregations. Luther's Large Catechism is divided into five parts: The Ten Commandments, The Apostles' Creed, The Lord's Prayer, Holy Baptism, and The Sacrament of the Altar. It and related documents was published in The Book of Concord in 1580. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- published: 14 Dec 2013

The Will of God Isn't...but Is...pt 2
This message will attempt to shed light on two things:
1. What the Will of God Isn’t
2. What the Will of God Is
First we must see the three major components of God’s Will:
LIVING IN THE WILL OF GOD WILL ALWAYS INVOLVE THESE THREE COMPONENTS:
1. Eternal Life
And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. John 17:3
To know the Will of God will involve having eternal life, which means to know God. So here is circular reasoning-To Know God’s Will You must Know God. To Know God you must have Eternal Life. To have eternal life, you must know God. To know God’s will is to know God.
2. Wisdom
that their hearts may be encouraged…to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. … Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, Colossians 2:2-6
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, Ephesians 1:17
Wisdom is “seeing Life from God’s Point of View.” Knowing God’s Will will always involve seeing Life from His point of View. After all, it is His Will!
Wisdom will always involve more of Jesus Christ in your life, for in Christ are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Living in the will of God will always involve walking in Jesus Christ.
Now since living in the Will of God involves Wisdom I need to point out how you get wisdom.
JAMES GIVES THIS ADVICE ABOUT GETTING WISDOM
Jas 1:5-8 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
You must want to see life from God’s point of view badly enough that you are willing to forsake everything this world has to offer. If you ask for wisdom, if you ask to live in God’s will, yet part of you wants this or wants that, contrary to God’s righteousness, then you will not get wisdom from God. You will not see life from His point of view. You will continue to be like the waves of the sea, tossing to and fro, lost from God’s will.
3. Faith
Living in the Will of God involves pleasing God. And Hebrews 11:6 says without Faith it is impossible to please God. By faith Moses left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured as seeing him who is invisible. Hebrews 11:27. Faith allows us to See God and what He wants to do with our lives.
Faith in your life will do Two Things:
1. Faith will allow you to see God behind everything that happens in your life.
2. Faith keeps you in a place where you are not sure what will happen next.
• If you can see the road ahead you don’t need to Trust God.
Living in the Will of God will always involve eternal life, wisdom and faith.
WHERE DO WE START?
In order to know what the Will of God is, we must know what it isn’t. Here are four common Falsehoods about the Will of God:
FALSEHOOD #1: God Wants Us to Know the Future
This is the biggest mistake we Christians make with regard to living in the Will of God.
Just because God has led a certain way does not guarantee the end result. We keep trying to look down the road so we can figure out the direction God is taking us.
It is rarely God’s will for you to know your entire personal future.
God doesn’t light the entire road. He promises just enough light for your step ahead.
Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.”
In fact they made little oil lamps that attached to your ankles. This would allow you to carry a load and still have light. But it was only enough light for one step.
So this verse pictures a man in total darkness walking along a dangerous trail. There is no moon in the sky. Darkness clings to him. His only light comes from the lamp strapped to his ankle. When he takes that step, what happens to the light? It goes forward one more step. The light is not bright enough to illuminate even five feet ahead.
Let’s face the truth–we want to know the future. At least we think we do. We want to know what is going to happen next year, so we can be ready in advance. But God doesn’t play that game with us.
The Bible says, “The secret things belong to the LORD our God” (Deuteronomy 29:29).
Does he know what will happen tomorrow? Yes, he does; but he’s not telling anyone else about it. Or to put it in familiar terms, does God have a blueprint for your life? Yes, he does; but there is no blueprint room where you can go to get a copy.
Suppose God were to offer you a folder with the details of your life (and for your loved ones also) for the next 10 years. Would you ta
