So, we're talking about sex in the Public Square this week. Or at least we're writing about it (and very well, i might add). Talking about it seems to be another matter altogether! I wonder if we can begin to talk about it more openly and widely in our communities of faith? What would it look like to have healthy conversations about sex in Church?
