Leading UK Christian youth magazine ‘Youthwork’ has devoted its entire August edition on the theme of ‘sex’. Articles include topics on homosexuality, abstinence and masturbation.
The edition includes an article by US youth ministry expert Chap Clark on what the Bible says - and doesn't say - about sex, and covers answers to questions frequently asked by young Christians such as ‘Is masturbation wrong? Should Christians flirt?’
Martin Saunders, Youthwork's Editor is ready to receive a mixed response from some of his 20,000 plus readership, but is unapologetic for devoting an issue of a Christian magazine to sex.
"Sex is a subject which we will face time and again in youth ministry, and our hope is that this resource will be a real help to youth workers as they attempt to answer difficult questions, set an example and offer practical, biblical and grace-centred advice."
