Tithing is a biblical principle that reflects our trust in God. Premarital sex is viewed as a sin based on God's design for marriage. Biblical figures were imperfect, yet God used them for His purposes. God's forgiveness is available to all who seek it sincerely. No one is too far gone for God's love and forgiveness. We have free will in our relationship with God. Finding purpose involves understanding spiritual gifts and passions. Every believer is called to know God and make Him known.

  Passion Vs. Romance: Love, Sex, and the Bible: Daily Devotional, Daily Bible Study In this episode, Passion vs. Romance, Rachael Groll unpacks the difference between fleeting passion and lasting, godly love. She explains that real fulfillment in relationships isn’t found in momentary excitement or physical connection alone—it’s built on admiration, respect, and a shared relationship with God.

Chasing the ultimate feeling of a fulfilling relationship is common. That craving is for God, not just physical intimacy. Addiction can take many forms, not just sex. People often discover too late the consequences of unhealthy relationships. True fulfillment comes from God-honoring relationships. The pursuit of fulfillment should align with God's design. Sex is not the ultimate answer to fulfillment. Healthy relationships require commitment and respect. Understanding the deeper needs behind desires is crucial.
