Is everyone doing it? Do you have to test the water before you marry? Is sexual restraint practical for Christians in today’s society? Since cybersex, phone sex, or sexting is not real, does it mean it is okay? What about petting, oral sex, and masturbation? What instructions do God’s words give? Dr. Patricia Weerakoon answers these questions in an interview “Debunking 5 Sexual Myths in a Sexually Charged Culture for Christian Singles.”
