Just a few days after it was discovered that Josh Duggar from "19 Kids and Counting" had been unfaithful to his wife Anna and used the extramarital dating website Ashley Madison to commit adultery, the Duggars' family pastor Ronnie Floyd from Cross Church in Springdale, Arkansas, talked about the issue of infidelity during his Sunday sermon.

Floyd's sermon—the first in a series on the theme of love and physical relationships called "Sex Today"—tackled the current state of the media and America's "sexual revolution," according to PEOPLE.

"This sexual revolution is altering mindsets, undermining the family, influencing the culture and is a mockery to biblical truth," said Floyd.

One of these things that serve to promote sin is the website Ashley Madison, which encourages married couples to stray from their relationship and find fulfilment elsewhere.

"We're in a sexual epidemic of unprecedented proportions in this country," Floyd said. "Nothing is secret now nor will it ever be. Adultery, being sexually or emotionally unfaithful to your spouse, that's wrong. Some of you are on the other end of someone else's destruction."

He then offered guidelines which people should follow when it comes to relationships and sex. He said that both the husband and wife should be happy with "sexual contact," but this may only be put on hold for "focused prayer."

Floyd warned that if a spouse is unable to make his or her partner sexually fulfilled, then they are opening themselves "up to the attack of the enemy."

"And that enemy is going to take your spouse away from you," he stressed. "Both men and women have their sexual needs met by someone, somewhere, somehow."

He also clarified that his sermon was designed not to make anyone "feel guilty," but rather, it hopes to educate and empower those who are struggling to understand the biblical view on sex.
